Double-Sided Metasurface Array for a Dual-Band and Polarization-Independent Microwave-Energy-Harvesting System

In this article, we present a simple and novel design of a double-sided metasurface for a dual-band and polarization-independent microwave-energy-harvesting system. The proposed metasurface is constructed from the dual-sided design of 8 × 8 unit cells. Different from the regular dual-band unit cells...
