  • Abstract
    A metasurface which is considered as a polarizer for microwave antennas is proposed in this paper. Preliminary results have shown that circularly polarized (CP) radiation can be obtained from linearly polarized (LP) source antennas with the use of metasurface, antenna performance such as realized gain, efficiency and bandwidth are improved simultaneously. The metasurfaced antennas have a succinct non-resonant cavity in sub-wavelength (1/13 λ0) format.
