The invention discloses a metasurface orbital
angular momentum array antenna with good
reflectivity. The array antenna is an array
phase plate formed by arranging more than two phase-shifting units, each phase-shifting unit comprises a
dielectric layer, the surface of the
dielectric layer is provided with square annular
metal patches; the bottom portion of the
dielectric layer is provided with
metal grounding
layers, the array
phase plate is divided into a first quadrant, a second quadrant, a third quadrant, a fourth quadrant, a fifth quadrant, a sixth quadrant, a seventh quadrant and an eighth quadrant in the
clockwise direction, the superficial area of the
metal patch in each quadrant is the same, and the superficial areas of the metal patches on the phase-shifting units in the first quadrant, the second quadrant, the third quadrant, the fourth quadrant, the fifth quadrant, the sixth quadrant, the seventh quadrant and the eighth quadrant are decreased in order. The metasurface orbital
angular momentum array antenna has a very excellent
incident wave reflection vortex effect, the reflection efficiency can reach more than 70 percent, and the metasurface orbital
angular momentum array antenna has good energy transmission efficiency; in addition, the metasurface orbital angular
momentum array antenna has the advantages of the simple structure, high
utilization rate of unit areasof the phase-shifting units, the simple manufacturing process and the low cost.
