Abstract: The novel T-shaped patch antenna with the superstrate approach is planned in the manuscript. The FR-4 dielectric material is used as a superstrate and substrate. The hexagonal-shaped rings are loaded in the superstrate to enable the metamaterial property in the structure. The copper-loaded metamaterial and liquid Sea water-loaded metamaterial are used in the planned antenna which increases the gain and BW of the planned antenna design . Different parametric analyses like the varying height of the superstrate and changing spacing among SRR rings are considered to achieve an optimum response. The analysis concerning S 11 , gain, and directivity is carried out among simple patch antenna, copper ring loaded structure and seawater loaded structure. The frequency span of 1 GHz to 12 GHz is considered for analysis. The planned designs provide a minimum S 11 of −49.16 dB in CMRNGS, a Gain of 6.92 dB in SMRNGS, and a highest directivity of 8.56 dB for 8.83 GHz resonance. The planned design is compared with other papers to check the improvement of this planned antenna design . The Simulated and assessed responses were also compared and analysed. The planned design is suitable for 5G, WLAN, tracking and detection applications.
