摘要
A planar reconfigurable metasurface is used as a parabolic reflector for antenna applications. The metasurface is composed of unit cells incorporating voltage-controlled varactor diodes, where the dispersion responses of the cells can be tailored. The phase characteristics of a parabolic reflector is engineered by judiciously controlling the bias voltage of the varactor diodes on the planar metasurface. The metasurface is illuminated by a microstrip patch antenna. Performed measurements show a directive radiated beam from the antenna system. Frequency agility and beam steering performances are also produced by reconfiguring the metasurface reflector.
