| Popis: | An Integral Equation (IE) based electromagnetic field solver using metasurface susceptibility tensors is proposed and validated using variety of numerical examples in 2D. The proposed method solves for fields generated by the metasurface which are represented as spatial discontinuities satisfying the Generalized Sheet Transition Conditions (GSTCs), and described using tensorial surface susceptibility densities, $\bar{\bar{\chi}}$. For the first time, the complete tensorial representation of susceptibilities is incorporated in this integrated IE-GSTC framework, where the normal surface polarizabilities and their spatial derivatives along the metasurface are rigorously taken into account. The proposed field equation formulation further utilizes a local co-ordinate system which enables modeling metasurfaces with arbitrary orientations and geometries. The proposed 2D BEM-GSTC framework is successfully tested using variety of examples including infinite and finite sized metasurfaces, periodic metasurfaces and complex shaped structures, showing comparisons with both analytical results and a commercial full-wave solver. It is shown that the zero-thickness sheet model with complete tensorial susceptibilities can very accurately reproduce the macroscopic fields, accounting for their angular field scattering response and the edge diffraction effects in finite-sized surfaces.
