A modeling of circular cylindrical metasurfaces using Method of Moments (MoM) based on Generalized Sheet Transition Conditions (GSTCs) is presented. GSTCs are used to link the integral equations for fields on the inner and outer contour of the cylindrical metasurface. The GSTC-MoM is validated by a case of an anisotropic, gyrotropic metasurface capable of two field transformations. The formulations presented here can be used as a platform for deriving GSTC-MoM for 3D spherical and conformal metasurfaces.
Abstract-A modeling of metasurfaces in the finite element method (FEM) based on generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs) is presented. The discontinuities in electromagnetic fields across a metasurface as represented by the GSTC are modeled by assigning nodes to both sides of the metasurface. The FEM-GSTC formulation in both 1D and 2D domains is derived and implemented. The method is extended to handle more general bianistroptic metasurfaces. The formulations are validated by several illustrative examples.
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.
