Abstract :
In this paper the most relevant applications derived from dispersion and impedance engineering in resonant type metamaterial transmission lines are highlighted. Essentially, this includes enhanced bandwidth components and dual-band components. Due to the small electrical size of the considered metamaterial resonators, size reduction is also obtained. We will provide some recent results obtained by the authors, and we will also point out future developments.
