Frequency selective surfaces (FSS) are widely used as spatial filter for the design of absorbers, radomes, dichroic plates, and reflector antennas in the microwave and millimeter wave frequency regime. In such applications, FSS structures are mainly employed to enhance the performance of the device within the specified band and reduce the radar signature outside the band. The FSS panels can be measured in this facility for 2-40 GHz.
