  • the configuration of the metamaterial is not limited to this.
  • a split ring resonator as disclosed in Document 1 may be used as a metamaterial.
  • Two-dimensional split ring resonators generally have a direction for current sensitivity that does not cause resonance if the magnetic field lines come from the plane containing the resonator. Therefore, if the configuration described above is used, a substrate circuit having a filter function and a duplexer function can be realized using a split ring resonator.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne une pluralité de résonateurs (100) qui sont agencés sur un substrat. Chacun des résonateurs (100) résonne lors de la réception d’une onde électromagnétique générée lorsqu’un courant prédéterminé circule autour du résonateur. En outre, chacun des résonateurs (100) présente une direction différente de sensibilité au courant. Chacun des résonateurs (100) est agencé dans la direction pour entraîner une résonance pour une onde électromagnétique entraînée par un courant qui passe sur le substrat.
