Smart Surfaces: A Powerless Solution to Multipath Signal Interference

Researchers create breakthrough metasurface technology for more reliable wireless communications in IoT devices
April 28, 2025
Multipath interference disrupts wireless signals, causing issues like TV ghosting and fading. Now, researchers from Japan have developed a passive metasurface that overcomes traditional filtering limits. Using a time-varying interlocking mechanism with field-effect transistors, it transmits the first signal while blocking delayed ones from other angles—without power or processing. This innovation enables low-cost, reliable wireless communication, which is ideal for IoT applications and environments prone to interference.
The evolution of wireless communications and the miniaturization of electrical circuits have fundamentally reshaped our lives and the digital landscape. However, as we push toward higher-frequency communications … Read More → "Smart Surfaces: A Powerless Solution to Multipath Signal Interference"
