摘要
This study introduces a steerable metasurface reflector designed for the Ka-band, enabling one-dimensional and two-dimensional beam steering. The paper elaborates on the design considerations, manufacturing process, and experimental findings. The unit cell design incorporates a Varactor diode as the tuning element, facilitating a dynamic phase range exceeding 300 degrees with minimal metasurface beam steering losses. Notably, the experimental results are in good agreement with the simulation outcomes. The advantages of employing this metasurface reflector include rapid beam steering, cost-effective production implementation, support for both one-dimensional and two-dimensional beam steering, low reflection loss, high-resolution beam steering, and continuous beam steering capabilities.
