Metamaterials are artificial structures arranged in homogeneous manner. It exhibits the properties of electromagnetic waves which are not discovered in naturally available materials. These types of materials place a major role for development and application of recent trending technologies. The eminent characteristics of metamaterials (MTM) are to enhance the performance of antenna interms of gain, bandwidth, efficiency, and generate multiband. These materials will also helpful to enhance the isolation in MIMO Antennas. So the behaviour of metamaterial is embedded on patch antenna to enhance the performance of antenna. This paper presents a review on recent progress in metamaterials and Metasurfaces to design curtail antennas, gain-bandwidth enhancement, isolation improvement techniques, miniaturization and beam splitters. The Metasurfaces (MTS) are part of metamaterials which are in uniform/non-uniform structure arrangement. The MTS structures reduce the surface current distribution and enhance the performance of the antenna based on the arrangement of structures. Now a day the demand is for wideband, multiband, high data rates and beam-splitting to cover the entire region supported by the 5G communication to provide good services to the users. So the MTM and MTS structures place a major role to design such type of antennas to meet the challenges in present and future coming generations in the telecommunication systems.
