Abstract :
Based on the earlier design and structure of a two-dimensional experimental platform (2D mapper) which was used to measure the scattering parameters of the metamaterial samples, we have succeeded in designing and manufacturing a revised version of two-dimensional experimental platform. Moreover, using the concept of time-division multiplex, we have managed to speed up the measurement of the system up to three times.
