Junping Geng - Spoof Surface Plasmon Polaritons Antenna

The modern antenna book series mainly covers the related antenna theories and technologies proposed and studied in recent years to solve the bottleneck problems faced by antennas, including binary coded antenna optimization method, artificial surface plasmon antenna, complex mirror current equivalent principle and low profile antenna, generalized pattern product principle and generalized antenna array, cross dielectric transmission antenna, metamaterial antenna, as well as new antenna technology and development. This series not only presents the important progress of modern antenna technology from different aspects, but also describes new theoretical methods, which can be used in modern and future wireless communication, radar detection, internet of things, wireless sensor networks and other systems.

The purpose of the modern antenna book series is to introduce new antenna concepts, new antenna theories, new antenna technologies and methods in recent years to antenna researchers and engineers for their study and reference. Each book in this series is thematic. It gives a comprehensive overview of the research methods and applications of a certain type of antenna, and specifically expounds the latest research progress and design methods. As a collection, the series provides valuable resources to a wide audience in academia, the engineering research community, industry and anyone else who are looking to expand their knowledge of antenna methods. In addition, modern antenna series is also open. More antenna researchers are welcome to publish their new research results in this series.

With the continuous development of communication science and technology and the increasing demand of society, wireless communication technology is developed rapidly. As the bottleneck of wireless transmission system, antenna has also been payed much attention. Different antennas are used in different communication systems to satisfy different application environments and performance requirements.

Recently, spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SSPPs) have been proposed in microwave band in view of the surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in optics. Due to their small loss, deep subwavelength, tunable dispersion and conformality, SSPPs has unique advantages in miniaturization and high integration. SSPPs have been combined with other techniques to design a variety of excellent microwave RF devices, such as filters, transmission lines and power dividers. At the same time, the strong binding of SSPP structure to waves and the slow wave characteristics have also been applied to design the antenna. Antennas based on SSPPs have performed many advantages such as high gain, low profile, miniaturization and broadband. However, there are few books about SSPPs antenna principle and practical engineering applications, and there is no systematic theory and summary.
