Tunable impedance surface

A tuneable impedance surface for steering and/or focusing a radio frequency beam. The tunable surface comprises a ground plane; a first plurality of elements disposed in an array a first distance from the ground plane, the distance being less than a wavelength of the radio frequency beam; and a seco...

Zusammenfassung:A tuneable impedance surface for steering and/or focusing a radio frequency beam. The tunable surface comprises a ground plane; a first plurality of elements disposed in an array a first distance from the ground plane, the distance being less than a wavelength of the radio frequency beam; and a second plurality of elements disposed in an array a second distance from the ground plane, the second plurality of elements be moveable relative to the first plurality of elements.
