Abstract
A novel design of a compact penta-band frequency selective surface (FSS) is presented in this letter. The FSS unit cell consists of five metallic structures, two at the top surface and three at the bottom surface of the dielectric, which provide five stopbands in PCS, WiFi, CBRS, lower WLAN, and X -band downlink satellite communication frequency ranges. The mechanisms of stop-band generations are elaborated with current distribution patterns and equivalent circuit modeling. The structure is polarization-insensitive and shows a stable response under oblique incidence up to ±54°. The FSS unit cell is compact with dimensions 0.1 λ × 0.1 λ , where λ signifies the free-space wavelength corresponding to the lowest resonant frequency. A prototype of the proposed FSS is fabricated, and the measured results are in accord with the simulated results.
