We present an electromagnetic study of a metamaterial receiver based on split-ring resonators with integrated cold-electron bolometers. We suggest a modified antenna design that allows one to significantly increase the absorbed power and the bandwidth.The trade-off between the bandwidth expansion due to miniaturization and the reduction in absorption efficiency determined by the Airy spot size of the coupling lens is investigated. To solve this issue, a simultaneous miniaturization of the size of the entire structure with an increase in the number of array elements is proposed. The design with a 37-element array demonstrates an increase in power absorption by a factor of 1.4 compared to the original 19-element single-ring array, as well as an increase in operating bandwidth from 160 to 820 GHz.
