Broadband interconnected receiver–transmitter surface for generating dual circularly polarized dual beams
We propose an interconnected receiver–transmitter surface (IRTS) for simultaneously generating left-hand circularly polarized (CP) beams and right-hand CP beams based on the Pancharatnam–Berry phase, thus realizing dual CP dual beam radiations. The IRTS is composed of upper-layer gradient patches an...

Zusammenfassung: | We propose an interconnected receiver–transmitter surface (IRTS) for simultaneously generating left-hand circularly polarized (CP) beams and right-hand CP beams based on the Pancharatnam–Berry phase, thus realizing dual CP dual beam radiations. The IRTS is composed of upper-layer gradient patches and lower-layer periodic patches that are connected by the metal probes that cross the center tears of the middle metal ground. The lower-layer patches of the IRTS can receive linearly polarized waves and couple the energy into the upper-layer by the metal probe for obtaining dual CP dual beam radiations. In particular, the working bandwidth of the present design can also be further extended when both IRTSs with adjacent working frequency bands are superimposed on each other to form a broadband IRTS (BIRTS). Finally, we fabricate the proposed IRTS and BIRTS with a standard gain horn antenna as the feed and experimentally demonstrate the functionalities of generating dual CP dual beams. |
