Abstract
We analyze and optimize the performance of unconventional negative permeability () metamaterial and demonstrate its ability to focus and restore the decaying Fourier harmonics (FH) in microwave regime operating frequencies. We show that multiple real and imaginary values of at same or multiple operating frequencies for a resonant type of metamaterial could not exhibit finest resolution at the region of interest (ROI), unless and until the distance of the source plane with respect to metamaterial and ROI could be re-optimized in accordance with and of . Using the variable parameters to enhance the resolution limit of metamaterial, we optimize the metamaterial’s configuration for maximum propagation field absorption and regeneration of decaying FH at ROI. The optimization of the test bed that contains the source plane, metamaterial, and ROI followed by the regeneration of the decaying FH from the source plane at the surface of the material, yielded a high image resolution at ROI.
