Abstract
To effectively address the challenges posed by intricate and dynamic electromagnetic environments, we propose a wideband and tunable radar absorber in this paper. The proposed absorber, composed of graphene capacitor, plasma enclosed within a sealed glass cavity, radar absorbing material (RAM), FR-4 and copper plate, allows for tunable radar absorbing performance through the manipulation of the electromagnetic properties of the graphene capacitor and plasma. Based on the equivalent circuit model, the reflectivity of the radar absorber is analyzed using transmission line theory (TLT). Good agreement is observed between the full-wave simulations and the TLT. The study thoroughly investigates the influence of graphene, plasma, and RAM components, as well as their sequential arrangement within the radar absorber, on its reflectivity, expounding the fundamental mechanism of these materials’ synergistic integration. Additionally, the effects of key factors, including the surface resistance R
