  • Abstract
    In this paper, an exhaustive analysis of resonant type metamaterial transmission lines is carried out. Specifically, the effects of the dimensions and resonator characteristics on the frequency response are studied and interpreted to the light of the equivalent circuit model of the lines. This study is important for the application of these artificial lines to microwave circuit design, since important guidelines concerning device bandwidth can be inferred.
