Abstract
This article presents the design and experimental validation of a single-passband, fourth-order frequency selective surface (FSS). A circular patch resonator loaded with diagonal triangle slot is first designed to characterize the dual-mode operation. To suppress cross-polarized reflections generated by these modes, four such resonators are arranged with a separation between adjacent patches. Following this, a single-band bandpass FSS based on a multilayer aperture-coupled (AC) structure is developed. The designed FSS provides greater flexibility in achieving single-band higher-order filtering responses compared to traditional AC patch resonators. It is validated through electric and magnetic coupling in the slot-loaded AC circular patch resonator, confirming the effectiveness of the design approach. Additionally, an equivalent circuit is developed using lumped elements, and both even- and odd-mode analyses are performed. The fabricated FSS prototypes are experimentally validated, demonstrating angular stability across varying incidence angles from to , while maintaining consistent resonant behavior for broadband responses.

AEÜ is an international scientific journal which publishes both original works and invited tutorials. The journal''s scope covers all aspects of theory and design of circuits, systems and devices for electronics, signal processing, and communication, including:
signal and system theory, digital signal processing
network theory and circuit design
information theory, communication theory and techniques, modulation, source and channel coding
switching theory and techniques, communication protocols
optical communications
microwave theory and techniques, radar, sonar
antennas, wave propagation
AEÜ publishes full papers and letters with very short turn around time but a high standard review process. Review cycles are typically finished within twelve weeks by application of modern electronic communication facilities.
