摘要

In this paper, a novel frequency selective surface (FSS) based on rotationally symmetric bended microstrips is investigated. The unit element consists of twelve L-shaped metal strips and a dielectric substrate. Bended L-shaped strips have different equivalent electric lengths corresponding to different resonant frequencies, which result in multi-band frequency characteristic. Meanwhile, the symmetric metal strips make the FSS polarization insensitive. The numerical experiments demonstrate that the FSS structure has fifteen stop-bands in the frequency band from 6 GHz to 20 GHz, and a good polarization stability as well. Moreover, the FSS design such as the inner radius of L-shaped metal strips, the dimensions of dielectric substrate and the width of the bended metal strips significantly effects on the FSS performance. Because of the multi-band property, the FS S designed in this paper has a bright prospect in many modern wireless communication systems and even in 5G communication system in the future.
