A thin metamaterial absorber has been used as a sensor array to measure the 2-d distribution of radio-frequency (RF) wave field incident and absorbed on its surface. The absorber is designed so that the incident wave is absorbed by a metasurface which is matched with the incident wave impedance. Absorption is achieved by lumped resistors interconnecting a 2-d dense array of mushroom-type square patches formed on a grounded dielectric substrate. The resistors inserted between the adjacent patches arranged in the row (x) and column (y) directions on the surface absorb the incident x- and y-polarizations, respectively, at the resonance frequency of the metasurface. In this case the x- and y-resistors act as small dipole sensors which output the voltages proportional to the x- and y-components of electric field of the incident wave, with their effective lengths given as a unit cell size. By monitoring the voltages on the array of the lumped resistors, 2-d amplitude and phase distributions of electric field are obtained on the absorber surface.
