The disclosure discloses an absorbing metamaterial, including a plurality of metamaterial units that are periodically arranged, where the metamaterial unit includes: a first loop disposed on a first plane; and a second loop disposed on a second plane, where the first plane is perpendicular to the second plane, so that the first loop and the second loop are orthogonal. According to the foregoing technical solution in the disclosure, wave absorption in a large angle range can be implemented while ensuring wideband wave absorption.
