Multi-feed high-gain Huygens' metasurface for microwave power transmission.

We propose a multi-feed Huygens' metasurface (HMS) transmitarray designed for microwave power transmission applications. A near-field distributed optimization mechanism is employed to determine the optimal focal lengths of subarrays. We aim to balance between illumination efficiency and interference from incident waves, leveraging the conjugate field matching method for precise phase compensation. This approach ensures robust radiation performance, notably reducing the focus-to-diameter ratio for large-aperture antenna arrays. Consequently, it mitigates spatial dispersion effects and upholds the operational bandwidth of mega antennas. As a proof of concept, we have designed a single-layer HMS transmitarray measuring 1.14 × 1.14 m2 (22 λ at 5.8 GHz). Through simulation, we have attained a peak gain of 35.47 dB and an aperture efficiency of 57.73%. Our design exhibits outstanding radiation performance, combined with advantages, such as a low profile, cost-effectiveness, and scalability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
