摘要
提出了一种利用电磁超表面实现Ku波段(12~18GHz)的低剖面反射型线性极化转换表面,该表面能对Ku波段的线极化电磁波进行正交极化旋转。给出了极化转换表面的设计原理,并对极化转换表面工作的物理原理进行了解释,通过仿真确定了极化转换表面谐振点的位置。测试结果表明,该线性极化转换表面在工作频带内可以实现80%以上的转换效率,具有转换效率高、尺寸小、厚度薄和结构简单等优点。
A low profile linear reflective polarization conversion surface in the Ku band(12-18 GHz)is proposed using a metasurface,which can convert a linearly polarized incident wave into its orthogonal polarization states in the Ku band.The principle of designing such a polarization conversion surface is given.The physical working mechanism of a polarization conversion surface is clarified.The simulation is used to determine the positions of resonance points of the polarization conversion surface.The test results show that the proposed polarization conversion surface has a conversion efficiency of more than 80% within the working band,and has the advantages of high conversion efficiency,small size,small thickness,and simple structure.
