The work considers the possibility of using metamaterials to design of low-gain antennas with improved parameters of antenna pattern. It is shown that additional elements of the antenna, made of metamaterial, can be considered as antenna array of parasitic emitters, forming antenna pattern of the required shape. It is shown that the use of metamaterial inserts allows to optimize irradiators for reflector and lens antennas.
