High-Power Considerations in Metamaterial Antennas
Abstract
While many studies have been conducted on metamaterials at microwave frequencies, comparatively few have examined their use in high-power applications. Here, we perform a general study of metamaterial geometries to identify configurations that are well-suited for utilization in high-power environments. We further develop a genetic algorithm optimization scheme for synthesizing pixelized geometries with artificial magnetic conducting (AMC) properties and reduced maximum field enhancement factor (MFEF).
