Conformal Dual-Band Frequency Selective Surface on Textile: Design, Prototyping and Expriment

In this study, a textile based dual band conformal frequency selective surface has been proposed in order to filter the electromagnetic waves. A commonly known split ring resonator (SRR) is used for unit cell design and an array with 4x6 elements used for planar design presented. The proposed array is bended on a sphere having a radius of 22.45 cm. The performance of the conformal structure is evaluated and compared with the planar one. Measurement results have also been presented.
