A novel design approach for wideband absorber screen

Abstract

A novel design approach to the absorber screen based on the receiving antenna technique is presented in this letter. According to the similar performance principle of absorber and receiving antenna, the dual-polarized magneto-electric dipole antenna is improved and optimized by the software HFSS to obtain a thin and broadband absorber screen. And the simulation result shows that a 78% wide band for −10dB power reflection reduction is achieved. Meanwhile, the thickness of absorber screen is below 1/9 of the wavelength at the center frequency in free space.
