Reconfigurable Fabry-Pérot Leaky-Wave Antennas

Together with their colleagues, the authors have been working on reconfigurable leaky-wave antennas using the Fabry-Perot structure [1, 2]. By employing a partially reflective surface at the top and a tuneable high impedance surface at the bottom, an electronically scanned beam can be produced. The paper presents an overview of our theoretical and experimental results on reconfigurable 10 LWAs, and reports our latest findings and potential future applications.
