This communication presents a novel frequency-selective surface (FSS) with high in-band transmission at high frequency and wideband absorption at low frequency. It consists of a resistive sheet and a metallic bandpass FSS separated by a foam spacer. The resistive element is realized by inserting a strip-type parallel $LC$ (PLC) structure into the center of a lumped-resistor-loaded metallic dipole. The PLC resonates at the passband of the bandpass FSS and exhibits an infinite impedance, which splits the resistive dipole into two short sections per the surface current; this setup allows for high in-band transmission at high frequency. Below the resonance frequency, the PLC becomes finite inductive and the entire FSS performs as an absorber with the metallic FSS as a ground plane. The surface current distribution on the resistive element can be controlled at various frequencies via the PLC structure. The wideband absorption and high in-band transmission of the proposed design are verified by both numerical simulation and experimental measurements. The potential extension to polarization-insensitive designs is also discussed.

Multifunctional broadband microwave absorption of flexible graphene composites

In this letter, we report on the design, fabrication, measurement, and analysis of a tunable low-frequency and broadband radar absorber applied in the frequency range of 1–12 GHz. Numerical simulations indicate that absorbers based on the resistor-loaded frequency selective surface (FSS) can be resistively tuned to give a broadband absorption of exceeding $-\hbox{10 dB}$ between 1 and 12 GHz. Moreover, superior absorbing performance can be achieved by introducing capacitance paralleled with resistance. Measurement results show that the radar absorber, by way of configuration with active FSS (AFSS) controlled by p-i-n diodes, can be tuned to provide a continuously variable reflectivity level of less than $-\hbox{10 dB}$ from 2 to 11.3 GHz with varied bias voltages. Furthermore, experimental results have good agreement with simulations.

Design of a Tunable Low-Frequency and Broadband Radar Absorber Based on Active Frequency Selective Surface

This article proposes a new method to realize a low-profile broadband absorber. The unit cell of the proposed absorber consists of two layers: a lossy layer with four rotationally symmetric bent metallic strips embedded with two chip-resistors, which is modified from a doubly fed dipole antenna, and a metallic ground separated from the lossy layer by an air spacer. Three resonant modes of the metallic strip embedded with two chip-resistors are generated, and the current in the strip passes through the chip-resistors under different modes and it is finally consumed, resulting in energy dissipation. As a result, an ultrawideband absorber is realized. The designed absorber is fabricated and measured, and the measured absorption band with a fractional bandwidth of 127.9% is achieved for at least 10-dB reflectivity reduction under the normal incidence. In addition, the thickness of the designed absorber is only $0.08\lambda _{L}$ , where $\lambda _{L}$ is the wavelength at the lowest operating frequency.

Low-Profile Broadband Absorber Based on Multimode Resistor-Embedded Metallic Strips

This paper presents the design, fabrication, and electromagnetic testing of a frequency selective surface (FSS)-based novel hybrid nanocomposite absorber for enhanced electromagnetic absorption. The proposed hybrid absorber consists of an FSS pattern printed over a dielectric substrate backed by aluminum foil, which is integrated together with a customized dielectric nanocomposite sheet. The dielectric sheet comprises the conducting carbon black (CB) nanopowders embedded into the epoxy matrix. The fabricated nanocomposite sheet is first characterized for the effective complex permittivity using the free-space measurement technique, and the measured electromagnetic properties are then used for the design of a hybrid absorber. The proposed hybrid absorber having overall thickness of 2.6 mm shows enhanced −10-dB absorption bandwidth of 3.5 GHz, which is much higher than that of the FSS and CB nanocomposite samples measured individually. The proposed work provides an effective way to combine the absorption properties of FSS with that of a customized dielectric absorber sheet in order to design an efficient hybrid absorber having reduced thickness with enhanced absorption bandwidth for stealth technology and various strategic applications.

Design of Frequency Selective Surface-Based Hybrid Nanocomposite Absorber for Stealth Applications

In this letter, the design of a light-weight magnetic radar absorber (RA) having broadband bandwidth in frequency range of 1-18GHz is demonstrated. A 5mm-thick magnetic RA with weak wave absorbing performance is obtained on the basis of polyurethane foam filled with flake ferrous microwave absorbent. The use of frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) results in a significant increase of the absorbing intensity and operating bandwidth of the RA. By selecting the unit dimensions and modulating the location and square resistance of FSS, a maximal operating bandwidth with the reflectivity below -10dB can be obtained. Experimental results are presented and compared to numerical simulations, and they demonstrated that the RA embedded with lossy FSS has a super broad bandwidth of 3.19-18GHz with the reflectivity below -10dB for the double-layer case. The density of the absorber is only 0.62g/cm 3 , which is far more less than that of the conventional magnetic coating RAMs.

Design of a light-weight magnetic radar absorber embedded with resistive FSS

The design of a frequency selective surface (FSS) screen constructed using a coupling configuration to implement a broadband microwave absorber is presented in this paper. The reflectivity representation recognizes the characterization of the absorber. Simulation and measurement results are presented and analyzed. A coupling FSS screen is introduced in order to obtain a better bandwidth and absorption. The bandwidth with the reflectivity below -10dB could get 5.45-18GHz, compared with the 6.28-18GHz of the absorber with square patches FSS, provided that the thickness of the absorber is 4mm.
