Abstract— A unit-cell-free truncated impedance sheet model isproposed for the modeling and design of low-profile broadbandmetasurface antennas (MAs) composed of nonresonant unit cellsusing characteristic mode analysis. Different from conventionalMAs with locally resonant unit cells, the nonresonant unit cellsof the proposed MAs only contribute to the grid impedance andthe MA operates with the global resonances of the metasurfaces.New measures are also reported to incorporate a higher ordermetasurface mode for wideband radiation. A low-profile broadbandMA is designed at the 5 GHz Wi-Fi bands for the proofof concept. Three modes are excited simultaneously, includinga quasi-TM01 mode, a quasi-TM21 mode, and a dipole mode.With a size of 0.8λL × 0.8λL × 0.087λL (λL is the wavelength infree space at the lowest operating frequency), the prototyped MAachieves a bandwidth of 45% with |S11| < ?10 dB, boresightgain of 8.5–11.6 dBi, and 3 dB beamwidth of 40°–60°/43°–65° forthe E-/H-planes.Index Terms— Broadband antennas, characteristic modeanalysis (CMA), higher order modes, impedance loading,impedance sheet, metamaterials, metasurfaces (MTSs), modecontrol, multimode antenna, surface impedance.
中文简介:核心思想是以小博大,局部改变全局,不变的是宏观结构,变的是本构关系,以“非谐振”单元构建和控制全局“谐振”,从而实现基函数的构造和精细调控。文章包含了“建模、分析、综合、调控、激励”五个方面,可玩度高,变化空间充足。
