Ultrathin and broadband metamaterial absorber with loaded four lumped resistors is proposed and analyzed. The reported design is based on increasing the absorptivity by reducing the reflection and transmission coefficients simultaneously. Therefore, continuous metallic ground is used to achieve zero transmission while the reflection is reduced by matching the impedance of the proposed metamaterial absorber with the impedance of free space (Z = Z_0 or μ_r = ε_r). Additionally, electric and magnetic resonances are achieved simultaneously with perfect absorptivity. The finite element method is used to simulate and analyze the reported absorber. The suggested absorber shows higher absorption than 90% over large frequency range (14.35–29.18 GHz) for both transverse electric and transverse magnetic polarizations. Further, the proposed design has high absorption through incident angle variation from 0° to 50°. Therefore, the reported perfect metamaterial absorber has good potential applications in communications, stealth and imaging fields.
