Abstract
A controllable left-handed metamaterial based on a varactor-loaded S-shaped resonator structure is presented to realize an active radome. By controlling the phase properties of the radome, the antenna exhibits continuous scanning capability in a range of , which is confirmed by theoretical analysis.
