Description
Summary:In this paper, a triple-band-pass frequency selective structure is designed by combining traditional frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) with the spoof surface plasmon polariton (SSPP) guiding structure array. The FSSs consist of Jerusalem cross unit cell array with dual-band-pass property. And the SSPP guiding structure array is composed of vertical metallic blade structure array with high-efficiency transmission by engineering the dispersion of SSPP. By arranging the FSSs above the SSPP guiding structure array, a null located between the two passbands is introduced, resulting in a triple-band-pass characteristic. Furthermore, the triple-band-pass frequency selective structure is simulated, fabricated and measured. Both the simulated and measured results agree well, and verify that the transmissivities are all higher than -0.5dB in three frequency ranges: 2.42-2.90GHz, 5.57-5.85GHz and 9.48-9.85GHz. And the transmissivities of stopbands are lower than -10dB in three frequency ranges: 3.12-5.46GHz, 6.65-7.89GHz and 10.32-15.20GHz.
