Abstract
The influence of material coverings on the antenna bandwidth is investigated for antennas formed by thin electric or magnetic line sources. It is shown that uniform thin layers of arbitrary passive materials (including Veselago, left-handed, or double-negative materials) cannot help to overcome the bandwidth limitations imposed by the amount of energy stored in the antenna reactive field. Alternative possibilities offered by complex composite materials in the antenna design are identified.
