- Abstract
We present the operation and design of newly developed, fully automatic equipment for the visualization of microwave electric fields. This equipment enables the observation of microwave field patterns around different objects including metamaterial prototypes and to study the field patterns of various microwave antennas and other objects that have been developed and that interact with a surrounding microwave electromagnetic field. Moreover, the developed prototypes whose interaction with an incident electromagnetic wave is crucial for practical applications can be investigated using size scaling, and hence our equipment can be used for the testing of antennas and other devices that interact with electromagnetic radiation, not only at microwave frequencies, but also at radio frequencies. The performance of our innovative equipment was demonstrated through the investigation of the metamaterial cloak. The frequency behavior of the metamaterial cloak revealed frequency bands with maximum cloaking efficiencies.
