Numerical Modelling of Glide Periodic Structures via Integral Equations

In this paper we propose to study the dispersion diagram of non-canonical glide-symmetric unit cells via integral equations with the use of the periodic Green's function and discretized via the method of moment. The proposed approach is validated with a fully metallic implementation of a Luneburg lens operating at Ka-band with potential use for 5G communications. The promising preliminary numerical results highlight the potentialities of this approach.
