可扩展的透射元表面目标5G，6G网络

Kyocera in Japan has developed a scalable Transmissive Metasurface technology that can redirect wireless network signals in a specific direction. This can improve the coverage area and performance of 5G and eventually 6G networks with smaller repeaters.

Many metasurface materials are under development to help deliver high-frequency millimeter-wave 5G and 6G to places where communication is impossible due to obstacles, but many of these are reflective.

The 28 GHz band used in 5G networks, and the higher frequency band being studied for 6G, are enable high bandwidth links but are short range and often cannot reach locations where a direct line of sight to the base station is obstructed. Reflective Metasurface materials can be limited in their ability to change the direction of a signal to reach these areas, redirecting at a wide angle.

透射元面

透射元表面技术可以以更小的角度重定向无线电波以扩展目标网络覆盖范围。例如，一个大型建筑可以阻止5G网络传输，但京瓷的透射元表面装置可以向下重定向信号以达到较小的建筑物，以便更好地覆盖。

透射元曲面可以传递信号的区域与元表面本身的大小成比例。传统技术已经无法开发出足够尺寸的透射性能，以进行实际使用，但京瓷可以使用其专有技术设计任何尺寸，从而允许更大的灵活性。这使得可以在更多的地方安装Metasurfaces，例如房屋庭院或公寓阳台。
