Abstract

Planar Photonic Crystal (PhC) resonators have recently been proposed for identification in the mm-wave and THz bands. However, these resonators suffer from limited retro-directivity, typically confined to approximately 6° in the azimuth plane. In this paper, we propose a novel solution by introducing a curved photonic crystal resonator to enhance retro-directivity. The proposed curved PhC resonator not only overcomes retro-directivity limitations, but also exhibits a relatively high Radar Cross Section (RCS) for wide angles of incidence. Improving retro-directivity is crucial as it directly contributes to the performance and efficiency of identification systems. The proposed curved PhC resonator offers improved response over a wider angular range, making them suitable for practical applications.
