Abstract

This letter presents multiband absorbers with wide absorption bandwidths based on an impedance matching theory. A wideband absorber with a good absorption performance is served as a matching load for multiband bandpass frequency selective surface (FSS) filters. As a result, the reflection coefficients of the proposed absorbers are in high accordance with the counterparts of the original bandpass FSS filters. For demonstration, a triple-band absorber with wide absorption bandwidths is designed and fabricated by cascading a triple-band bandpass FSS filter and a wideband absorber together. The simulated results reveal that the proposed absorber has wide fractional bandwidths of 5.2%, 8.0%, and 6.4%, which is experimentally validated by the measured results.
