Metasurface For Microstrip-fed Slot Antennas

broken image


A new design for a microstrip-fed slot antenna (MFSA) is proposed and developed for improving bandwidth, gain and reducing back radiation. In contrast with most unidirectional MFSA, a metasurface. By loading the metasurface on the microstrip slot antenna, linearly polarized (LP) waves from the source antenna are converted into circularly polarized (CP) waves. Then, by etching three more parasitic square cross gaps in the middle of the metasurface, enhanced impedance bandwidth and axial ratio bandwidth (ARBW) are achieved.

Abstract

25 dollar slot machine odds. The metasurface concept has emerged as an advantageous reconfigurable antenna architecture for beam forming and wave-front shaping, with applications that include satellite and terrestrial communications, radar, imaging, and wireless power transfer. The metasurface antenna consists of an array of metamaterial elements distributed over an electrically large structure, each subwavelength in dimension and with subwavelength separation between elements. In the antenna configuration we consider, the metasurface is excited by the fields from an attached waveguide. Each metamaterial element can be modeled as a polarizable dipole that couples the waveguide mode to radiation modes. Distinct from the phased array and electronically-scanned-antenna architectures, a dynamic metasurface antenna does not require active phase shifters and amplifiers but rather achieves reconfigurability by shifting the resonance frequency of each individual metamaterial element. We derive the basic properties of a one-dimensional waveguide-fed metasurface antenna in the approximation in which the metamaterial elements do not perturb the waveguide mode and are noninteracting. We derive analytical approximations for the array factors of the one-dimensional antenna, including the effective polarizabilities needed for amplitude-only, phase-only, and binary constraints. Using full-wave numerical simulations, we confirm the analysis, modeling waveguides with slots or complementary metamaterial elements patterned into one of the surfaces.
