Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electromagnetic metasurface technology, and in particular to a metasurface design method, apparatus, device and medium based on impedance matching. Background Technology

[0002] Metasurfaces are a new type of device based on artificial electromagnetic structures. They can dynamically control the phase, amplitude, and polarization characteristics of electromagnetic waves through subwavelength unit structures, and have important application value in many fields.

[0003] Traditional metasurface design heavily relies on full-wave electromagnetic simulation to iteratively evaluate the geometric parameters of the unit structure. Each parameter adjustment requires resimulation to obtain reflection characteristics, resulting in long design cycles and enormous computational resource consumption. Methods based on multi-port network models utilize mathematical iterations of optimization algorithms but fail to consider the performance limits of tunable devices, limiting their performance analysis and parameter design capabilities. While multi-port network models are introduced, their optimization strategies also have limitations. Directly optimizing the lumped parameters or load impedance values ​​between network ports, using mathematical optimization algorithms to iteratively solve for a set of optimal values, ensures the entire network meets the target reflection coefficient parameters at a specific frequency or band. However, such optimization processes often treat tunable devices as ideal components. The "optimal" lumped parameter values ​​obtained through free iteration in mathematical space may exceed the physical performance limits achievable by actual tunable devices under the current bias state. This leads to mathematically "optimal" results that are physically unattainable, or even if achievable, performance degradation due to device operation in non-ideal conditions. Existing methods lack the ability to incorporate the port impedance characteristics of the adjustable device itself as a core constraint into the optimization framework. Therefore, they cannot ensure that the design results achieve truly optimal performance under the constraints of actual devices. Summary of the Invention
