The former pattern can independently control the low-frequency resonance, while the latter two can control the high-frequency resonance. The proposed metasurface can achieve a large incident angle of 60 degrees for electromagnetic waves in TE and TM polarizations. After the metal layer of the proposed metasurface is meshed, the transparency of the metasurface is significantly improved.

The key innovation lies in the anisotropic properties of the cover layer which suppress the excitation of the fundamental surface-wave (SW) mode, effectively mitigating scan blindness within the desired angular range. This suppression mechanism is simply not possible with a conventional dielectric-slab wide-angle impedance matching (WAIM) layer. The anisotropic slab SW suppression key mechanism is analyzed using the transverse resonance technique, yielding design equations for practical implementation. The metamaterial cover uniquely combines a wire medium (WM) slab and an artificial dielectric layer. This combination addresses two critical limitations of wide-angle scanning phased arrays: scan blindness and mutual coupling. The performance of the metamaterial cover is analyzed using the current sheet model and the spectral domain Green’s function of the stratified dielectric media, incorporating a detailed model of the WM slab. Results demonstrate an improvement in scan range across more than 10% fractional bandwidth. To validate the concept, a prototype is fabricated and applied to a home-made <inline-formula> <tex-math>$8times 8$ </tex-math></inline-formula>-element patch-antenna phased array with half-wavelength element spacing and a limited scan range. Crucially, in the E-plane, where surface waves limit performance in the bare array, the scan range is dramatically increased from ±30° to ±50°.

However, uncertainties arising from limitations of the sounding hardware and algorithms may greatly impact the comparability between sounding results. Especially, (sub-)THz channel sounders do not allow simultaneous spatially and timely resolved measurements as known from sub-6 GHz and mm-wave applications (right now), limiting the possibilities of a hardware-independent channel characterization. At the same time, a high Doppler bandwidth may occur due to the high carrier frequencies, limiting the time spans for coherent or incoherent data processing. Hence, assessing the sounder’s performance and limits is important before interpreting the measurement results. Evaluating the sounder performance requires a traceable reference allowing tracing back measurements (or estimated propagation parameters) to a physical ground truth. Therefore, we propose and discuss an over-the-air artifact allowing a joint verification of delay and Doppler parameters in a multipath scenario. The evaluations of exemplary sub-THz measurements with a multicarrier-based sounder highlight the strong interplay between sounder hardware and estimation algorithms, especially when coping with the mutual interference of parameters from multiple propagation paths. Hence, a metrological assessment always requires considering the full processing pipeline from the unprocessed measurements up to the extracted propagation parameters.","PeriodicalId":34267,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Antennas and Propagation","volume":"6 4","pages":"1175-1187"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10982190","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144831683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the analysis, it is concluded that AiP and AoC systems are very promising for highly integrated solutions requiring a small form factor, such as inter-device communication. At the same time, other concepts such as lens antennas provide a better solution for high-gain applications like fronthaul/backhaul scenarios. For D-band, a patch-AiP is the dominant antenna choice, but for H-band tailoring the antenna type to a specific application is highly recommended. The challenges involved in designing, manufacturing and measuring sub-THz antennas are best represented by the fact that only 26% of the listed AiP and AoC antennas operating above 200 GHz have documented performance measurements.
