Transport property of graphene electron in two kinds of realistic magnetic barriers is studied. For symmetric magnetic barriers with perpendicular magnetization, transmission is symmetric in (E,ky)(E,ky) space. There exists a (2n−12n−1)-fold resonance splitting rule for n -barrier structure due to the splitting of energy levels. For antisymmetric magnetic barriers with parallel magnetization, transmission is asymmetric in (E,ky)(E,ky) space, and the Fabry–Pérot resonance is observed. The smoothness of magnetic barrier weakens the resonant behavior of transmission. The conductance resonance can be controlled by the thickness of strips, the distance between strips and graphene, and the smooth electric barrier.
