Abstract

In this study, a 1-bit phase reconfigurable unit cell (UC) is proposed for an X-band intelligent reflective surface (IRS). The UC is designed by integrating a PIN diode into a slotted copper patch. The maximum phase shift occurs at the design frequency of 9.5 GHz and the phase difference varies within 180°± 20° from 9 to 10 GHz in the X-band. A 16 × 16 IRS is designed and simulated using the proposed UC to verify gain and beam steering performance. The IRS has a gain of 20.5 dBi at θ=0°. At θ=± 40° the gain is 18.6 dBi which validates good beam steering performance.
