Abstract
A novel tunable frequencyโselective surface (FSS) filter configuration that can simultaneously block both vertical and horizontal polarizations is proposed. It consists of dipole elements tuned by lowโcost varactor diodes that are biased by multilayer grids. Single and seriesโpair diode implementations are presented. The filter's tunable performance is demonstrated numerically and experimentally at around 2.45 GHz. ยฉ 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

ishes. Again, the effect of the presence of a surface wave is apparent in the Figure . It has also been verified that the copolar component of the field coincides, in the limit p' -+ a/2, with the expressions obtained by the application of the standard Maliuzhinets method, valid at normal incidence.
## Abstract In this paper an efficient means to control the reflection and transmission characteristics of wireโbased frequencyโselective surfaces (FSS) using linearโlumped impedance loading is presented. We show that by varying the topology of the RLC loading circuits and the component values it i
A band-stop frequency-selective surface is presented that is able to adjust its properties to allow for drifts in the incident signal frequency. This form of smartness is achieved through the novel control of varactor diodes, achieved by using a personal computer (PC). The smart FSS performance is e
