Abstract: In this paper, a new metamaterial absorber which comprises of a symmetrically E shaped split ring resonator patches at the top of the FR4 substrate of height 1.6mm for RF Energy Harvesting is proposed. The proposed design provides two absorption peak one at 5.8GHz with a maximum absorption of about 99% and other at 7.8GHz with a maximum absorption of about 92%. The absorption mechanism is investigated for the proposed metamaterial absorber. Also the polarization behavior of the absorber is also analyzed under various angles of incidence. The absorber has been tuned in such a way to have good broadband response in the UWB range.
