  • Abstract

    In contemporary Wireless Communication (WC) methods, a Slot Antenna (SA) is extensively utilized for multifunctional purposes. SAs ‎often function in a wideband capacity. This antenna type exhibited constraints in lower gain due to its broad operation. This research ‎introduces an SA engineered at operational frequencies ranging from 1.9 GHz to 6.7 GHz, along with an analysis of improvements in ‎performance in SA utilizing Metamaterials (MM) to augment SA quality. MMs can enhance the efficacy of SA by augmenting gain values, ‎diminishing side-lobbing stages, and improving reflection factors (S11). The configuration and architecture positioned at the SAs for ‎comparison with the result are ascertained. They all function as reflectors for reflecting radiation, enhancing the mean gain across all ‎working frequencies from 3.52 to 7.44 dBi for the construction and 7.53 dBi for the wire medium. Both the modeling and the experiment yielded ‎excellent outcomes. The suggested meta materials exhibited improved gain and diminished sidelobe levels‎.
