X-Band and Ku-Band Frequency Switching Planar Reflecting Surface Unit Cells
This work provides an investigation for the design and analysis of frequency-switching planar reflecting surface unit cells designed in X-band and Ku-band frequency ranges. Slot and gap-embedded configurations have been proposed to obtain optimum reflection phase performance from the unit cells. The proposed design also helps to minimize the mutual coupling in the array environment. A PIN diode has been attached to the patch surface of each unit cell for frequency switching. Various design parameters have been investigated in order to study their effect on the performance of proposed unit cell designs. Based on the frequency variation using PIN diodes frequency tunability of 0.43 GHz and 0.35 GHz have been demonstrated for X-band and Ku-band frequency ranges.
