A Low RCS Meta-reflector

This work proposes a reflecting meta-surface with reduced Radar Cross Section (RCS). Hexagonal supercells pack the surface. Each supercell contains non-resonating remodeled Jerusalem Cross meta-cell arranged appropriately to give linear reflection phase. This arrangement of phased elements reflects diffused scattering of incident waves at 9.5GHz, 10GHz, and 10.5GHz. Numerical and measured monostatic RCS results of meta-surface compared to the equivalent metallic plane plate shows approximately 15dBsM reduction. This has application potential for X-band stealth technology.
