Abstract :
Here, we propose a three-dimensional, asymmetric, flat reflector based on the manipulation of a preexisting, transformed, two-dimensional permittivity map. Broadside and off-broadside radiation patterns at different frequencies (from 13-17GHz) are included to demonstrate the beam steering capabilities of various designs.
