Holographic metasurface antennas (HMAs) have gained significant attention for their ability to achieve dynamic beam steering, high gain, and compact integration in high-frequency communication systems. This paper presents the design, analysis, and fabrication of a holographic metasurface antenna operating at the 24 GHz frequency band, targeting applications such as automotive radar, wireless communications, and satellite links. The proposed antenna employs a metasurface layer to manipulate electromagnetic wavefronts based on holographic principles, enabling efficient beamforming and reduced sidelobe levels. Full-wave electromagnetic simulations are conducted to optimize the metasurface structure, ensuring enhanced radiation efficiency and wide-angle beam scanning. A prototype is fabricated using PCB-based manufacturing techniques, and its performance is experimentally validated. Measurement results demonstrate a high-gain radiation pattern, effective beam steering capabilities, and improved efficiency, making the proposed HMA a promising candidate for next-generation high-frequency communication systems.
