Hermetic transform beam-forming devices and methods using meta-materials

摘要

According to one or more exemplary embodiments, a receiver comprises one or more first metamaterial circuit elements configured to receive a signal; one or more second metamaterial circuit elements configured to perform a hermetic transform on the signal to output a hermetic transform output; and one or more third metamaterial circuit elements configured to perform a summation on the hermetic transform output. Additionally, according to one or more exemplary embodiments, a transmitter comprises a metamaterial waveguide configured to guide a signal and allow the signal to exit the metamaterial waveguide; one or more first metamaterial circuit elements coupled to the metamaterial waveguide and configured to perform a hermetic transform on the signal; and one or more second metamaterial elements configured to transmit the signal.
