Abstract
A multi-band patch antenna loaded with composite right-/left-handed (CRLH) unit cell is presented in this paper. It operates at three bands, which are not harmonically related, covering several communication standards. The first and third bands have patch-like radiation pattern, and the second band has monopole-like radiation pattern. These bands can be controlled by varying the patch size and unit cell element values. The performance was analyzed using both electromagnetic and circuit simulations; furthermore, measurements were taken and all were in good agreement.
