The functionality of a fully planar metamaterial-inspired substrate-integrated cavity is thoroughly investigated in the present work. The electromagnetic field confinement of the proposed device is realized with the utilization of broadside-coupled complementary split ring resonators that operate as a virtual electric wall. The numerical results from the eigenvalue analysis verify the presence of the fundamental resonances with a noteworthy quality factor. Subsequently, full-wave simulations are conducted to validate the resonance functionality of the proposed device, with excitation achieved using the metallic core of a coaxial cable. Numerical results highlighted, also, the radiation capabilities exploiting the inherent openings in the device due to the complementary resonators.
