In this paper, a novel approach to achieve multiband antenna operation using metamaterial based resonant structures is presented. Multiband antenna operation is achieved by employment of complementary split ring resonators (CSRR) printed in the ground plane. The CSRRs resonate at different frequencies according to their optimized dimensions. Proposed approach features simple design and fabrication possibility compared to other methods of achieving multiband antenna operation such as usage of composite right/left-handed (CRLH) transmission line or split ring resonators (SRR) or CSRR around the patch surface. The proposed method is demonstrated through simulation and experimental measurements using three CSRRs with different resonant frequencies together with a tuning CSRR and a radiating patch. Contribution of different CSRRs to obtain multiple resonances have been shown by surface current plots. Measured antenna gain of 2.78, 1.27 and 3.45 dB has been obtained at frequencies of 5.25, 6.28 and 7.29 GHz respectively. The measurements done on developed antenna exhibits close agreement with the simulation results. In context with the current communication application trends involving multiple operating bands like 5G, this approach may have immense application potential since the same can be adopted to achieve compact multiband antennae operation in other frequency bands of interest.
