Local Permeability of a Metasurface in the MHz and GHz Ranges

Abstract

The work is dedicated to the study of the magnetic response of a metasurface made of split ring resonators (meta-atoms) in the MHz and GHz ranges. A new method for calculating the local permeability of a metasurface in the MHz frequency range is proposed, taking into account the finite sizes of the elements, and for the first time, a result of high degree of accuracy matching with experimental values has been obtained. In the GHz range, additional factors such as the retardation effect, nonuniform current distribution in the meta-atom, and the complexity of the nature of meta-atoms’ interaction compared to the MHz range are also considered, in particular, the emergence of electrical interaction between them.
