This work will result in a lightweight radar absorbing metamaterial that has a switchable passband to allow for switching between different communications and navigation frequencies. Installing this metamaterial as part of the fuselage of a UAV, USV, or other vehicle will ensure it remains stealth to radar, while controlling transmission of communications and positioning frequencies (GPS).
