Abstract

The embodiment of the present application provides an adjustable electromagnetic array element and a smart surface. Wherein, the adjustable electromagnetic array element includes a reflective unit and a parasitic unit, and the reflective unit includes: at least one reflective metal sheet; at least one adjustable element, the adjustable element is electrically connected to the reflective metal sheet, and the adjustable element is used for adjusting and controlling according to the control signal The electromagnetic parameters of the electromagnetic array element; the parasitic unit is arranged around the reflective metal sheet, and the parasitic unit is coupled and connected with the reflective metal sheet. In the embodiment of the present application, a parasitic smart surface is formed by setting a parasitic unit around the reflective unit of an adjustable electromagnetic array element, and the constitutive parameters of the smart surface are changed by using the coupling effect between the parasitic unit and the electromagnetic array element, thereby reducing the smart surface. The reflection loss improves the stability of the phase response of the smart surface, which is conducive to breaking through the performance limitations of the array element layout and the dielectric substrate on the smart surface, and improving the reliability of the multi-bit multi-polarization RIS solution.
