“…In the former case an excellent beam collimation and a high aperture efficiency is achieved due to the large set of phase adjustments, at the cost of a narrow working bandwidth [8], [9], [10]. On the contrary, larger frequency bands, less complex design, easy fabrication as well as a certain suitability for implementing reconfigurability are provided by the latter subset [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16]. Among the numerus techniques to control the TA spatial phase profile [17], [18], one of the most effective syntheses relies on the use of cascading frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) for altering the impinging electromagnetic wave characteristics [19], [20], [21], [22].…”
