In this paper we present a new efficient method for the simulation of low-profile antenna systems with Artificial Magnetic Conducting (AMC) ground planes that incorporate tunable lumped-elements. This technique works by first extracting an impedance matrix consisting of lumped elements and feed elements from a full-wave method of moments simulation. The embedded element theory is then employed to estimate the feed impedance of the AMC/antenna system with any set of arbitrary loading.
