Abstract:Antennas using the active frequency selective surface (AFSS) can achieve fast beam‐scanning ability at a low cost. In this study, a switched beam antenna with a high gain and 360° coverage in the horizontal plane is proposed. Twelve columns of AFSS form a cylindrical cavity and are transmissive or reflective to the incident electromagnetic waves under the control of PIN diodes. Benefiting from a coaxial continuous transverse stub array placed at the cavity centre and using 4 units to generate a high gain omnid… Show more
