Abstract
In this paper a brief review about metamaterials is given. Here we discus different type of metamaterials composite
structure used in antenna engineering. Compared with the conventional materials, metamaterials exhibits some
specific features which are not found in conventional material. after that metamertaials based antenna, also describe
the parameter of antenna like gain and bandwidth which can improve by using metamaterials and discuss future
scope and application of metamaterials.

Introduction
The Microstrip based configurations is its low year 2000, Smith et al.[4] reported the experimental

To overcome these drawbacks we used an artificial Classifaction of metamaterial

of their constituent materials. Metamaterials,
particularly left handed metamaterials (LH MTM)
characterized by a simultaneously negative
permittivity and permeability as well by a negative
refractive index, have been proposed for the
realization of many different types of microwave
components having advanced characteristics and
small size. Winston E. Kock developed materials that
had similar characteristics to metamaterials in the late
1940s. Materials, which exhibited reversed physical
characteristics, were first described theoretically by
Victor Veselago in 1967.According to V.G. Veselago
