Band-Stop Frequency-Selective Surface (FSS) with Elliptic Response Designed by the Extracted Pole Technique.

This paper describes and validates an advanced synthesis design process of Frequency-Selective Surfaces (FSSs) with elliptic band-stop responses. A systematic procedure based on the Generalized Chebyshev Function and the extracted pole technique enables control of the position of the transmission zeros and the attenuation level to obtain an equiripple rejection response. A systematic process is followed to obtain the lumped LC values of the resonator circuits extracted as poles and the impedance inverters.
