This paper is aimed to investigate micro strip patch antenna loaded with meta material, which are simulated for S-Band (1.70GHz-3.60GHz). Meta material offers advantages such as greater bandwidth, reduction in return loss, impedance matching, high gain and high directivity. FR-4 lossy material (dielectric constant er = 4.3, height of substrate = 1.6mm and loss tangent = 0.02) is used for designing of patch antenna. Meta material is loaded on FR-4 substrate at height of 3.314mm from ground plane. All simulations are carried by CST MW Studio software. single band rectangular micro strip patch antenna at frequency 2.33 GHz has been simulated. Further meta material is loaded on a ground plane of rectangular micro strip patch antenna at height 3.2mm the return loss of antenna significantly decreasing form -30.5 dB to -40.92 dB.
