Abstract
This paper demonstrates the feasibility of reducing radar cross-section by employing resistive sheets or rings in the conducting elements of an FSS unit cell. The idea behind the approach in question is to create power-absorbing elements which may help reduce the power reflected from FSS surface. The investigated FSS unit cells have the form of double-closed rings and double-closed-split rings. A carbon paste, serving as the resistive layer, was inserted in various regions within the unit cell. The CST Microwave Studio software was used to obtain the reflection coefficient. Specific dimensions and conductivity of the paste were selected to ensure better performance. Simulation results showed that the reflection coefficient may be reduced by 8 dB, to 14 dB, by using carbon paste with the conventional copper layer.
