METASURFACE DEVICE FOR CLOAKING AND RELATED APPLICATIONS
Provided are systems and methods for cloaking an object on a ground plane. A thin dielectric metasurface is used to reshape the wavefronts distorted by the object in order to mimic the reflection pattern of a flat ground plane. To achieve such carpet cloaking, the reflection angle is made equal to the incident angle everywhere on the object by providing a graded metasurface with a designed phase gradient. This provides additional phase to the wavefronts to compensate for the phase difference amongst lightpaths induced by the geometrical distortion. One exemplary metasurface is described which is designed for the microwave range using highly sub-wavelength dielectric resonators. The approach can be applied to hide any scatterer under a metasurface of class C1 (first derivative continuous) on a groundplane not only in the microwave regime, but also at other frequencies, including higher frequencies, up to the visible.

Variable external structures on systems for signature management
Provided is an apparatus and method for radar calibration that utilizes external shielding structures to be constructed around the body frame of a system to manage external signature presence and block unwanted signal emissions and intrusions. The inventive structures can adapt to desired user requirements or to environmental change as needed. The variable shielding with isolating connectors to the body frame of the system allows for aerodynamic needs to be sustained due to the mesh design while also protecting against electromagnetic spectrum interference and electro-optical short wave and long wave infrared signature emissions. The shielding can also be formed to emit a known or desired radio frequency response based on geometric shapes in order to influence radar cross-section readings. Communication with external environment is completed through the use of the shielding as a series of antennas.
