Narrowband Frequency Selective Surface Based on Substrate Integrated Waveguide Technology

Abstract

Abstract-In this paper, a novel narrowband frequency selective surface (FSS) with a stable performance based on substrate integrated waveguide technology is presented. The unit cell of the FSS consists of a double-sided metalized substrate with a circular hole and a SIW circular cavity. In this way, incident EM waves enter the circular cavity and excite a TM 110 cavity resonance, leading to a narrow passband. The high-Q property of the TM 110 cavity resonance provides a very good wide-angle and polarization-independent stability. Both the simulation and experimental results show that such narrowband FSS owes its advantages to high selectivity, low profile stable performance with various incident angles and different polarizations, which is suitable for impulse detections, narrow-band communications, electronic countermeasures, etc.
