    Experimental demonstration of metamaterials application for mitigating scan blindness in phased array antennas
    (EDP Sciences, 2016) Rodríguez Ulibarri, Pablo; Crépin, Thomas; Martel, Cédric; Boust, Fabrice; Falcone Lanas, Francisco; Loecker, Claudius; Herbertz, Kai; Bertuch, Thomas; Dousset, Thierry; Martinaud, Jean-Paul; Maci, Stefano; Marcotegui Iturmendi, José Antonio; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    This paper presents two metamaterial-inspired solutions to mitigate the scan blindness effects in a phased array antenna. In the first solution, portions of a bed of nails are introduced in the radome to prevent the excitation of surface waves. In the second solution, a superstrate metasurface is designed to synthesize a permittivity tensor optimized to achieve a wide angle impedance matching. In both approaches, the numerical simulations are successfully compared with measurements of a phased array antenna prototype with 100 elements. The wire medium-based solution reveals an effective way for reducing the blind-spot in a wide bandwidth, while the metaradome has been found less suitable for the same purpose.
