1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

In this article, a new method to create an anomalous reflection in the desired direction is proposed. Two-dimensional grating surfaces consisting of four particles with the properties of a Huygens source are employed in each period. Then, this method is extended to the problem in which the grating surface is illuminated by a real source such as a horn. In this case, the designed grating surface has different periods in both directions to collimate the reflected wave and give an in-phase wavefront. Using our method, a high-efficiency reflectarray (RA) based on quaternary Huygens grating is designed. This RA is distinguished from common RAs due to its beam squint capability. This array offers more aperture efficiency and thus more gain in comparison to the leaky waves that inherently have low aperture efficiency. Therefore, our designed RA can compete with leaky wave antennas in many applications. The mentioned RA is designed to have the main beam in the direction of [Formula: see text], at the frequency of 12 GHz. The simulation results show the realized gain and SLL of this antenna are 24.8 dB and [Formula: see text] dB, respectively. Also, by changing the frequency in the range of 12-15 GHz, the direction of the main beam varies from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text].
