Modified FSS response from two sided and closely coupled arrays
A demonstration is presented of a way in which an affected FSS response can be achieved using a two sided structure of dipole arrays sharing the same dielectric layer. Even with these simple elements the results produced resonances well below the grating lobe region, and consequently the instability of these with oblique agles of incidence (up to 75°) was less than 1%. The key to this work was the high coupling between the arrays that was achieved by a relative displacement.
