Abstract

The article presents a high gain metamaterial integrated modified golden spiral antenna for THz (Terahertz) applications. THz is well suited to the development of a next-generation wireless telecommunication system capable of firing at a tremendous rate of 100 Gb/sec. The Golden spiral patch antenna is integrated with six decagon metamaterial (MTM) unit cells in the ground plane. The (MTM) unit cell is designed by two decagon SRRs (Split Ring Resonator).The proposed antenna has the dimensions of 100 x 100µm2 with metamaterial decagon rings on the ground.The metamaterial integrated antenna resonates at 2.80THz, 3.15THz, and 3.46 THz with impedance bandwidths of 2.77 THz -2.88THz and 3.00-3.70THz.
