A metamaterial switch. The metamaterial switch includes a first conductive plate, a first loaded conductive plate, and a magneto-dielectric material. The first loaded conductive plate includes a second conductive plate and a first tunable impedance surface set. Each tunable impedance surface in the first tunable impedance surface set includes a respective tunable conductivity. An effective permittivity of the metamaterial switch is configured to be adjusted to a first predetermined value. The effective permittivity of the metamaterial switch is adjusted responsive to tuning a respective tunable conductivity of each respective tunable impedance surface in the first tunable impedance surface set.
