Left-Handed Metamaterial Structure for Side Lobe Suppression of Microstrip Array Antenna
In this paper, a Left-handed Metamaterial (LHM) structure is designed for side lobe suppression of a microstrip array antenna at frequency 2.8-3.1 GHz. The LHM structure is placed at the top of the microstrip array antenna with a space or gap between them. Side lobe suppression is very important for...
