Bandwidth and gain enhancement of microstrip patch antennas (MPAs) is proposed using reflective metasurface (RMS) as a superstrate. Two different types of the RMS, namely- the double split-ring resonator (DSR) and double closed-ring resonator (DCR) are separately investigated. The two antenna prototypes were manufactured, measured and compared. The experimental results confirm that the RMS loaded MPAs achieve high-gain as well as bandwidth improvement. The desinged antenna using the RMS as a superstrate has a high-gain of over 9.0dBi and a wide impedance bandwidth of over 13%. The RMS is also utilized to achieve a thin antenna with a cavity height of 6 mm, which is equivalent to λ/21 at the center frequency of 2.45GHz. At the same time, the cross polarization level and front-to-back ratio of these antennas are also examined.
