Existing Mobile health technology requires more reliable connection power and data transfer rates. The purpose of this research is to design, analyse, and compare the performance of a bio-inspired lotus-shaped microstrip patch antenna array with two to three radiating elements. The proposed antenna utilizes proximity coupled indirect microstrip transmission line feeding technique operating in the 24 GHz-30 GHz frequency band. The results indicate that performance continues to improve as the number of radiating elements increases. Moreover, each radiating element is loaded with complementary and non-complementary split-ring resonators (SRRs). The performance of the proposed microstrip antenna array is then analysed and compared with and without split-ring resonators. The findings validate that the proposed bio-inspired metamaterial-based microstrip patch array antenna is more reliable and performs better than an antenna without SRRs.}, type={Article}, title={Study on Metamaterial-based Bio-inspired Microstrip Antenna Array for 5G Enabled Mobile Health Technology}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/123367/PDF-MASTER/28-3414-Colaco-sk-b.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ijet.2022.139868}, keywords={microstrip, antenna, bio-inspired, array, split-ring resonators, metamaterial, 5G}, }
