RCS reduction using grounded multi-height multi-dielectrics metasurfaces

In this paper, the PO method with the array theory are used to formulate the RCS of a grounded multi-height dielectric surface which can be employed in the design and optimization of a metasurface consisting of dielectric tiles with different heights and permittivities. The proposed closed form relations can be used instead of full wave simulation to design an optimized dielectric grounded metasurface, properly. Finally, three different RCS reducer metasurfaces are designed and optimized with three different dielectric tiles by using the proposed analytical relations. The results prove that the proposed ground dielectric metasurface achieve more than 10 dB RCS reduction at 4.4-16.3 GHz (114.9%) frequency range. This result proves the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed analytical method which can be used in the RCS reducer metasurfaces design.
