This study proposes a quasi-fractal polarisation conversion metasurface (PCM) for ultra-wideband radar cross-section reduction (RCSR). The simple and proposed metasurface is composed of double-heads arrowed-like unit cell benefited from the second iteration Koch fractal in its arm and cut-line to broaden the bandwidth. Consequently, this PCM unit cell and its 90, 180 and 270 degrees rotated counterparts obtain destructive interference cancellation between their reflected waves and RCSR. The proposed metasurface demonstrates 10-dB RCSR from 7.68 to 40.87 GHz (136.73%) for normal incident waves, and more than 96.7% up to 40 degrees incident angle that verifies the large range incident angle RCSR of the surface. The experimental measurement results at the normal incident angle and their comparison with simulation ones prove the idea.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
