Summary:
A dielectric resonator based metamaterial antenna is presented for dual band operations. The hybrid design uses the dielectric resonator (DR) and split ring resonator (SRR) to radiate two resonant modes. The antenna has a compact size of 40 × 40 mm2. The peak realized gain of 6.24 dBi and 6.04 dBi is obtained at 5.5 GHz and 5.8 GHz respectively. Also a peak efficiency of 94% is obtained across the covering frequency. The antenna has potential applications for WiMAX (5.5 GHz) and WLAN (5.8 GHz) operations
