Abstract
In this paper, a highly selective quad-band frequency selective surface (FSS) with ultra-wideband rejection is presented. The proposed FSS structure was developed by cascading five metallic layers by three thin dielectric substrates. The five metallic layers are composed of two bent slot layers, two metallic square rings, and a metal patch. The dimensions of the unit cell are 0.13λ0× 0.13λ0× 0.18λ0 (λ0 is the free-space wavelength at the first operating frequency). The proposed structure achieves four transmission bands and has two wide stop-bands located at 1 to 5.5 GHz and 14 to 40 GHz, with a suppressed transmission coefficient below -20 dB. In order to verify the simulation results, an FSS prototype was fabricated and measured. It can be observed that the measured results are in favorable agreement with the simulation results. Its multiple narrow passbands and highly selective and ultra-wideband rejection properties ensure that our design can play a significant role in narrowband antennas, spatial filters, and many other fields.
