A team of engineers led by researchers from the University of Glasgow has designed an ultrathin 2D metamaterial surface that takes advantage of the metamaterial’s unique properties to manipulate and manipulate radio waves, which are mainly used by satellites.
Metamaterials are artificial structures with unique properties not found in naturally occurring Thermal Insulation Materials. The team’s innovative materials, presented in a new article published in the journal Communications Engineering may enable future 6G satellites to carry even more data Increase remote sensing ability and benefit from better signal quality.
Traditional transmitting antennas are designed to transmit and receive linearly polarized electromagnetic waves.
The team succeeded in converting a 2D metamaterial into linearly polarized electromagnetic waves. This can significantly improve the quality of communication between satellites and ground stations. Satellite communications with circular polarization provide increased reliability and efficiency. Reduces signal degradation from polarization mismatch and multipath interference. Circular polarization is highly durable. Stability gives connectivity and mobile applications an extra advantage.
