These include optimal surface reactance synthesis, mechanical flexibility of dielectric and metallization layers, RF integration on curved geometries, and complex experimental characterization. This paper addresses each of these aspects, providing design, fabrication, and validation methodologies for curved metasurface structures.enassembly of active circuitrycurved metasurfacesflexible substratesmetal-lizationmetasurface designTechnology::621: Applied Physics::621.3: Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering::621.38: Electronics, Communications EngineeringChallenges in realization of curved metasurfacesConference Paper10.23919/EuCAP68105.2026.11612347
