Abstract
In this article, a miniaturized and highly stable frequency-selective rasorber (FSR) incorporating an embedded transmission window is designed. This FSR consists of a lossy layer loaded with resistors, an air layer, and a bandpass layer. The lossy layer is provided with a rectangular, square ring structure loaded with four 180 Ω resistors and four quadrilateral metal plates. The four metal plates are connected to the four corners of the inner ring around the square ring and are radially distributed along the diagonal. The bandpass layer is a square metal patch that a cross-ring slot structure is loaded inside of, and the cross points lie in the direction along the diagonal of the unit. The inner boundary of the cross-ring is composed of two mutually perpendicular and long rectangular elements. This FSR shows an embedded transmission window from 3.63 GHz to 3.80 GHz and has a transmission rate of 93% at 3.72 GHz. Moreover, both sides of the transmission band, namely, 1.86-3.35 GHz and 3.99-8.28 GHz, have an absorption rate of more than 80% and bilateral relative bandwidth of more than 50%. In addition, this structure exhibits excellent miniaturization performance, polarization insensitivity, and angular stability. Finally, a prototype of the designed FSR is processed and measured. The measured results are basically consistent with the simulation results.
