Metasurface-Based Lens for Antenna Gain Enhancement and Radar Cross Section Reduction

In this paper, leveraging the resonant phase and the geometry phase simultaneously, we demonstrated a low scattering lens antenna, which can work at both transmission and reflection mode. Different from the traditional microwave lens which only realizes wavefront shaping in half-space, the proposed...
