Meta-surfaces (MSs) can achieve free manipulation on transmission of electromagnetic waves, which makes them with broad application prospects in domains such as stealth. Based on basic concept, design principle of meta-surfaces is discussed. This paper focuses on the stealth technology, and conclude the physical mechanism and the research development of meta-surfaces including reflection MSs and diffraction MSs. Discuss the application limitation of meta-surface, and overlook on the development tendency. The research provides related research of meta-surface with reference.
