with split ring resonator (SRR) as metamaterial unit cell. The aim of this work is to exhibit the
improvement of the gain and the band width by metamaterial inclusion. The obtained results
from HFSS simulation concerning the constitutive parameters of the (SRR), show that there
is a DNG (Double Negative) permeability and permittivity in the frequency of interest. In this
work the operating bandwidth of the proposed antenna (notched band) is in the range of …
