Abstract

In this paper, a shared-aperture transmissive/reflective bi-functional metasurface is proposed. On metasurfaces, antisymmetric dipole pairs as transmissive elements and symmetric dipole pairs as reflective elements are interleaved in orthogonal polarization. By utilizing Huygens’ resonance, the metasurface can achieve near full phase coverage for orthogonally polarized transmitted and reflected wave. Then the bi-functional metasurface is used for the design of transmitarray (TA)/reflectarray (RA) bi-functional antenna. The measured results show that, for TA, the maximum gain is 30.26 dBi with antenna efficiency of 45.6 % and the 3-dB gain bandwidth is 26.3–29.3 GHz (10.79 %), and for RA, the maximum gain is 30.29 dBi with antenna efficiency of 45.7 % and the 3-dB gain bandwidth entirely covers the frequency region of 26–30 GHz. The bi-functional metasurface has important applications in the field of antenna engineering.
