Dual-Band Acoustic Metasurface: Bimodal Resonance for Anomalous Reflections

In fields such as noise control, medical ultrasound, and acoustic communication, the flexible regulation of reflected sound waves has significant application value. In this work, a dual-band acoustic metasurface was designed using a split hollow cuboid with an open-hole plate (OPSHC) structure, which simultaneously achieves the direction control of reflected sound waves in both frequency bands. An OPSHC is a series structural unit, and the two center frequencies are mainly controlled by the diameters of the two openings in the structure and the position of the open-hole plate. Through finite element simulation, the influence of the center frequency of the metasurface and the position of the open-hole plate on the bandwidth of the anomalous reflection was studied. The results show that when the low-frequency center frequency is fixed, the low-frequency bandwidth of the metasurface increases with the increase in the high-frequency center frequency. When the position of the plate is moved, the low-frequency bandwidth increases and the high-frequency bandwidth decreases. This type of metasurface provides a new technical approach for broadband acoustic metasurface applications in noise control and underwater detection systems.
