Here, we present a unique method to enhance the low-frequency absorption performance of a honeycomb absorber by integrating a metasurface. The geometrical dimensions of the proposed metasurface have been numerically optimized. The introduction of the metasurface allows exploitation of its robust resonance and superior impedance matching in low-frequency bands, thereby improving microwave absorption properties. The incorporation of the metasurface does not impact the wave transmission performance of the honeycomb core absorber at high-frequency band, thus preserving its high-frequency performance. This broadens the absorption range, leading to an expanded bandwidth. Simulation results reveal that the composite absorber (CA) exhibits strong absorption performance with an incident angle stability up to 45° for both transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) modes. The absorption mechanism of the CA has been investigated by using an equivalent circuit model and electromagnetic field analysis. A prototype was designed, fabricated, and tested to validate the proposed method. Both simulation and measurement results demonstrate that the prototype can achieve an average absorption rate exceeding 90% across a 1.0−18.0 GHz range. This study introduces an innovative technique for creating microwave absorbers for low-frequency wideband applications.
