Abstract

In this paper, edge-broad-side coupled spiral resonator (EBC-SR) is proposed to enhance the miniaturization of the metamaterial resonators. After a comparative analysis, it is found that the proposed strategy can drastically reduce the electrical size of metamaterial resonators. This is due to the use, at the same time, advantages of edge coupling, broad-side coupling, and self-coupling. A lumped element equivalent circuit model is proposed for the EBC-SR-loaded transmission line. This model is validated by comparing the results of electromagnetic simulations with the circuit simulations using the extracted parameter values. To validate the proposed strategy, a prototype of the EBC-SR embedded inside a drive loop is fabricated. The experimental results are presented with the simulation results.
