Novel Polarization- Reconfigurable Converter Based on Multilayer Frequency-Selective Surfaces This paper introduces a mechanism for reconfigurable polarization. The authors present a polarization-reconfigurable converter (PRC) based on a multilayer frequency-selective surface (MFSS).

摘要: In this paper, a novel polarization-reconfigurable converter (PRC) is proposed based on multilayer frequency- selective surface (MFSS). First, the MFSS designed using square patches and grid lines array to determine ope- rational frequency bandwidth, then corners of are truncated produce phase difference 90 � between two orthogonal linear components for cir- cular polarization performance. To analyze synthesize PRC array, operational mechanism described in detail. The relation states as function ro- tating angle summarized from principle operation. Therefore, results show that polari- zation (LP) an incident wave can be reconfigured LP, right- left-hand circular polarizations by rotating free-standing screen. cell periods along x -a nd y-directions same, their total height 6 mm. fractional bandwidth axial ratio (AR) less than 3 dB more 15% with respect center operating 10 GHz at normal incidence.
