In this study, an OAM generator based on a folded reflectarray with high-gain, low-profile, broadband, and programmable characteristics is proposed. The generator can generate high-gain and high mode purity OAM-mode-reconfigurable beams in a high-frequency range, and has the potential for integration with multiple functions in OAM-based wireless communications and radar detection.
Transmissive and reflective metasurfaces have been extensively studied for generating an orbital angular momentum (OAM)-carrying beam. However, the existing OAM generators suffer from feed blockage, large profile, OAM mode nonreconfigurable, and narrowband. An OAM generator that integrates multiple functions into a single module is in high demand in OAM-based applications. In this study, we proposed an OAM generator based on a folded reflectarray with high-gain low-profile broadband and programmable characteristics. The proposed multifunctional OAM generator, comprising half the volume of the normal OAM metasurfaces, can generate a high-gain l = 0, l = +1, and l = +2 OAM-mode-reconfigurable beams with high mode purity over the frequency range of 9.5-10.5 GHz. The proposed OAM generator-integrated multiple functions have potential applications in OAM-based wireless communications and radar detection.
