Abstract :
Complete control of the magnitude, phase, and polarization of an antenna aperture using leaky waves supported by cascaded metasurfaces is discussed. The proposed structure consists of cascaded, tensor electric sheet admittances separated by dielectric substrates atop a ground plane. The design methodology is briefly discussed.
