Abstract :
This contribution analyzes several multi-frequency antenna systems based on meta-surfaces. As it is demonstrated, there is a synergy between the frequency-domain behavior of the meta-surface and multi-frequency antenna architectures. Therefore, the use of the meta-surface is not restricted to enhance the radiation properties of the single-antenna element, but also contributes at system level aspects such us isolation and compactness.
