Metamaterials with Negative Parameters approaches metamaterials from physics principles to microwave applications in a uniform textbook-like manner. It provides a thorough presentation of the theory, design and applications of metamaterials with an emphasis on split ring resonators (SRRs). The books covers all important microwave applications including filters, multiplexers, couplers, antennas, and devices.
