Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesHIGH IMPEDANCE SURFACES FOR FLEXIBLE AND CONFORMAL WIRELESS SYSTEMSHaider R. Khaleel, Hussain M. Al-Rizzo, Ayman Issac, Said AbushamlehRecent years have witnessed a great deal of interest from both scientific and academic communities in the field of flexible electronic systems. Most flexible electronic systems require the integration of flexible antennas operating in specific frequency bands to provide wireless connectivity which is highly demanded by today’s network oriented society. On the other hand, High Impedance Surfaces have become very … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 Jun 2014 · 7,218 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA Novel µ-Negative Metamaterial With Enhanced Rejection BandwidthHaider Raad, Hussain Al-Rizzo, Ayman Abbosh, Said AbushamlehIn this study, a novel planar µ-Negative (MNG) metamaterial structure based on Split Ring Resonators (SRRs) with improved rejection bandwidth is presented. A bridging technique is used to connect two SRR unit cells at the center to emulate a cascaded filter. The proposed structure achieved a -20 dB rejection bandwidth of 15.5% compared to 4.5% for the conventional SRRs which … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2013 · 7,372 accessesView PDFCite
