Abstract

This paper presents a new approach for designing a superstrate for the Fabry Pérot antenna, to achieve beam steering over the full azimuthal plane. The superstrate of the proposed antenna consists of a linearly graded metasurface (LgMS) and a constant phase partially reflecting surface (PRS). The hybrid metasurfaces offer gradual changes in the magnitude and phase of the reflection and transmission coefficient characteristics, which causes tilting of the main lobe direction.Further, the mechanical rotation of the superstrate structure in the azimuthal plane causes the main lobe direction to steer in the same plane. The proposed antenna operates from 4.33 GHz to 5.1 GHz with a maximum directivity of about 11 dBi and offers beam steering over complete azimuthal plane for frequencies below 4.8 GHz. The proposed structure can be used as a beam steering antenna for applications like air traffic control, satellite communication, shipboard communication, etc.
