Abstract
A miniaturized high selectivityfrequency selective rasorber (FSR) with a wide interabsorption high transparent bandpass based on multiple 2.5-dimensional (2.5-D) resonators is investigated. The main contribution is the achievement of a wide and high transparent passband by combining the large inductance of parallel resonators (PRs) and cascading two 2.5-D PRs, which also provide the function of miniaturization. The 2.5-D PR is implemented by connecting the interdigitated capacitor and the metal meandered strip-line on both surfaces of a lossy layer through metalized vias. The inductor and capacitor values of 2.5-D PR can be individually adjusted to shift the passband's central frequency. The lossy element is realized by inserting two 2.5-D strip-type PRs at the center of each side of a meandered cross-dipole loaded with two resistive sheets on both sides. An equivalent circuit model is proposed to analyze its operating principle. The dimensions of the miniaturized element are 0.12 λ <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">L</sub> × 0.12 λ <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">L</sub> × 0.118 λ <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">L</sub> . While maintaining a good wide passband (−1dB relative bandwidth is 21.2%), the miniaturized FSR satisfies the characteristic of polarization insensitivity (TE and TM), and angular insensitivity (up to 45°). A prototype of miniaturized FSR has been manufactured and measured, showing a reasonable agreement with simulations.
