The proposed arrangement uses the form of an artificial magnetic conductor printed on a dielectric substrate with the incorporation of surface mounted electronically controlled elements onto the textured surface to control the phase of the surface in order to encode π/2 phase differences. The investigation shows that by adjusting the surface capacitance of mounted active element to each of four possible different states the arrangement can generate four different phases of reflected signals thereby making the structure useful as a QPSK reflector. In addition, the effect of different thickness of a dielectric substrate is also investigated and the result is included for comparison. © 2009 IEEE.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Active elements,Artificial magnetic conductors,Dielectric substrates,Different thickness,Phase difference,Reflected signal,Reflection loss,Surface capacitance,Textured surface[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Artificial magnetic conductor,QPSK reflector,Reflection loss,Textured surface[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/ICEEI.2009.5254750[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
