Reconfigurable surfaces facilitating energy-efficient, intelligent surface wave propagation have recently emerged as a technology that finds applications in many-core systems and 6G wireless communications. In this paper, we consider the porosity-based reconfigurable surface where there are cavities that can be filled on-demand with fluid metal such as Galinstan, in order to create adaptable channels for efficient wave propagation. We aim to investigate the propagation phenomenon of signal fluctuation resulting from the diffraction of discrete porosity and study how different porosity patterns affect this phenomenon. Our results cover the frequency range between 21.7GHz and 31.6GHz when a WR-34 waveguide is used as the transducer.
