摘要：
The method to control the aperture phase distribution of antenna using a metasurface is proposed to point the antenna beam to desired directions. A 1x10 substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) slot array antenna directly integrated with the metasurface of double-layer miniaturized framed Jerusalem crosses is, for example, designed to achieve the oblique radiation beam in 30 degrees at Ka-bands. In order to achieve a full 360 degrees transmission phase range, part of SIW slots are inverted to obtain additional 180 degrees phase shift so that more than 400 degrees phase shift range is realized. The measured results show that the beam directions are within 29.3 +/- 1 degrees from 34.25 to 35.75 GHz with a return loss better than 15 dB. The measured maximum gain is 12.1 dBi at 34.75 GHz. The combination of the array antenna and the metasurface features a low profile, simple structure, and flexible design for oblique beam application.
