Abstract

The frequency selective characteristics of a new dielectric periodic structure composed of left‐handed materials (LHM) are carefully investigated by a method, which combines the multimode network theory with the rigorous mode matching method. The variations of the frequency selective characteristics with structure parameters are presented and comparisons of propagation properties between right‐handed materials and LHM gratings are also shown with some explanations. Guidelines for accurate design of the left‐handed dielectric frequency selective surface are given. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
