| Abstract: |
| A novel metasurface antenna consisting of 5×5 rectangular patch elements is presented. The structure with and without the central element are both analyzed by the Characteristic Mode Theory (CMT). The developed mutually orthogonal principal modes of the optimized periodic patch structure are excited by a center-feed dipole. A differential feeding network is employed to realize impedance matching. Prototype with profile height of 0.07λ0 (λ0 is the wavelength in free space at the lowest operating frequency) is fabricated and assembled to verify the simulation results. The measured results show that the reflectance coefficient of proposed matesurface antenna is less than -10 dB in the whole operating band range from 4.2 GHz to 5.5 GHz, a relative bandwidth of 26.8% is achieved, and the maximum measured realized gain is more than 9 dBi with a maximum radiation efficiency of 90%. The design provides a guideline on the application of characteristic modes (CMs) to radiation problems. |
