A configuration of a metasurface reflector with independently controllable resistance and capacitance that allows for control of the magnitude and phase of the reflected wave.
About
Metasurface reflector comprising an array of unit cells, each of which having independently controllable resistance and capacitance that allows for control of the magnitude and phase of the reflected wave by each unit cell. In one implementation, the unit cell uses coupled resonators, with each resonator having independently controllable parameters. By independently adjusting the resistance and the capacitance of the resonators, the magnitude and phase of the reflected wave from each unit cell can be controlled.
