Abstract
This article analyzes a review of recent developments in the field of frequency selective surface (FSS)-based advanced electromagnetic (EM) structures. FSSs have been the subject of intensive investigation for distinct EM applications for more than four decades. An FSS is a type of filter consisting of an array of periodic metallic patches or apertures on a dielectric substrate. The high-pass (inductive FSS) and low-pass (capacitive FSS) filtering operation of FSS results in the exhibition of total transmission and reflection near the resonance wavelength. This paper deals with an overview of different FSS geometries, namely, traditional, active, fractal, three-dimensional and multilayered FSSs. A number of recent practical EM applications of FSS structures like microwave absorbers, radomes, textiles and antennas are discussed. In addition, different types of optimization and fabrication techniques for FSS-based EM structures are incorporated. The FSS-based research directions described in this study may be of interest to the scientific community working in this particular field.
