A High Gain and Directivity Bow Tie Antenna Based on Single-Negative Metamaterial

Abstract This paper presents an antenna loaded with metamaterial to enhance its gain and directivity to improve the performance of a ground-penetrating radar system (GPR). We adjusted the parameters of the antenna to change its equivalent capacitance and inductance and applied an operating frequency...
