Abstract:
A method and apparatus for using Euclidean modulation in an antenna are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for controlling an antenna comprises mapping a desired modulation to achievable modulation states, mapping modulation values associated with the achievable modulation states to one or more control parameters, and controlling radio frequency (RF) radiating antenna elements using the one or more control parameters to perform beam forming.

Claim (Index 9):
The method defined in  claim 1  wherein mapping the desired modulation to achievable modulation states comprises:\n for each metamaterial element in a waveguide, computing an ideal polarizability; \n finding a required average polarizability distribution required in order to obtain an even aperture for the metamaterial elements; \n finding a range of polarizabilities available for the metamaterial elements given a tuning range of the elements; \n finding an average imaginary polarizability as a function of a maximum allowed imaginary polarizability; \n for each metamaterial element, finding a maximum allowed imaginary polarizability that is required in order to obtain an even aperture; \n for each element, removing from its range of available polarizabilities any points that have a larger imaginary polarizability than the maximum allowed imaginary polarizability; \n for each element, finding a point on a remaining range of available polarizabilities that is a shortest distance in a complex plane from the ideal polarizability; and \n tune each element to operates with a selected polarizability.
