In this paper, we propose a new method based on Huygens’ principle for calculations of transmission spectra with weak coupling and we call this method an improved Huygens’ principle. The original Huygens’ principle for metamaterial can only deal with transmission spectra without coupling between metamaterial structures. Our improved Huygens’ principle can give the approximate calculations of transmission spectra while considering coupling by employing the original Huygens’ principle. We demonstrate our method by employing full-wave simulations and experimental results.
