Description
Summary:A modified reflective metasurface, which is constructed by replacing the metal ground of the reflective coding metasurface with a bandpass frequency-selective surface, is proposed. The metasurface has transmission and reduction of radar cross-section characteristics. This allows the metasurface to overcome the drawbacks of conventional realizations, which use lossy materials. The modified metasurface provides high-efficiency transmission in the passband of a frequency-selective surface and broadband reduction of the radar cross section in the rejection band of the frequency-selective surface. Transmission of -0.24 dB was achieved at 4.6 GHz, as well as a -15 dB reduction of radar cross section from 8.5 to 13.5 GHz. This work provides advancements in metasurface applications.
