1. An antenna, the antenna comprising:
a metamaterial comprising a plurality of magnetic layers, wherein each of the plurality of magnetic layers is orientated along an axial direction of the metamaterial such that the metamaterial is associated with a first permeability based on a first incident wave relative to a face of a first magnetic layer of the plurality of magnetic layers and a second permeability based on a second incident wave relative to a side of the first magnetic layer; and
an electrical conductor, wherein the electrical conductor comprises a coil surrounding the metamaterial.
