Abstract :
The reflection properties of a phase modulating planar structure are examined. The structure consists of an active microwave screen placed in front of a conducting surface. Switching the screen between fully transparent and totally reflective states results in a phase modulated reflected signal with reduced energy at the illuminating frequency. Both single and multilayer configurations are examined
