In this paper, we present an unprecedented metamaterial absorber design exhibiting exceptional characteristics in electromagnetic wave absorption. The proposed bent Y-shaped structure, fabricated on an FR-4 substrate with copper patches, showcases remarkable performance across a diverse frequency spectrum. Through exhaustive simulations in CST, this design manifests eight distinct resonant frequencies, achieving absorption rates exceeding 90 % at each resonance. The resonances, strategically spanning from L-band (3.728 GHz) through S-band, C-band, X-band, Ku-band, and K-band up to 22.664 GHz, signify unparalleled versatility and efficacy in mitigating electromagnetic radiation. It investigates the equivalent circuit parameters of a proposed metamaterial absorber design, focusing on inductance (L), capacitance (C), and resistance (R). This paper investigates the applications of UWB devices at 3.728 GHz and Doppler navigation aids at the 13.4 GHz frequency as regulated by the Federal Communications Commission. It includes a discussion on near-zero refractive Index Metamaterials (NZRIM), highlighting their potential utilization in achieving extraordinary control over wave behaviour. Notably, the absorber's inherent polarization insensitivity fortifies its adaptability in various applications. Additionally, the metamaterial exhibits near-zero or negative permittivity, altering electric response, while simultaneously demonstrating permeability absolute zero throughout all frequency bands sparking new avenues for exploration and challenging conventional electromagnetic theories.
