Tailoring transmission window in a dynamic way with a multi-degree-of-freedom

Abstract

With the rapid development of wireless technology, the revolution of tailoring transmission window in dynamic way for the next generation communication systems is urgently required. However, the degree-of-freedom for switching transmission spectra of an effective medium still needs further investigation. Here, we propose a paradigm of solving this difficult academic issue via the method of bias-voltage-driven. Leveraging PIN diodes and varactor diodes into the predesigned positions of plasmonic meta-structures, the macro-control of transmission windows switch and the detailed dispersion manipulation can be separately achieved by synergy modulation of feed networks. Both the numerical simulations and experimental verifications are conducted to support the effectiveness of the proposed method. Significantly, the proposed paradigm presents great potential for applications in intelligent radome, adaptive communication systems, and other EM scenarios with multi-degree-of-freedom.
