Abstract

A Compact, dual-layer Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) is presented for electromagnetic shielding applications. The square loop FSS is modified to provide band rejection characteristics for ISM band and lower Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) covering from 2.2 GHz to 7.1 GHz with the bandwidth of (S21 < -20dB) 4.9 GHz. The novel design exhibits symmetric property due to which it achieves polarization-insensitive stable band rejection of the desired frequency band for various angles of incidences up to 60°. The proposed FSS structure has compact dimensions of 0.170λ x 0.170λ x 0.0117λ. The design was fabricated on either side of the substrate made of FR-4 with a dielectric constant of 4.4 and loss tangent of 0.02. The measured results are well per the simulation results. The proposed FSS in this paper has various applications, including the aerospace industry, hospitals, random, and in the scope of electromagnetic filters, etc.
