Summary: This article presents a dual-band dual-polarized antenna with frequency selective surface (FSS) that is compact in size and has high gain. The proposed antenna design allows radiation from the high-band element to transmit through the FSS-radiator of the low-band element, resulting in improved gain without reducing the gain of the high-band element. A prototype of the antenna operating in the 2.3-2.7 GHz and 3.3-3.8 GHz frequency bands was fabricated and measured, demonstrating high gain in a compact radiation aperture. The proposed antenna is suitable for multiband aperture-shared arrays due to its easy fabrication and low cost.

Summary: In this paper, a dual-band electronically reconfigurable transmitarray (ERTA) is designed and demonstrated with the capability of fully independent beam manipulation in two divided bands. The ERTA construction includes two kinds of orthogonally polarized reconfigurable elements and utilizes polarization isolation and a backed cavity for low coupling. A hierarchical bias method is used to separately control the 1-bit phase in each band.

Summary: A high-gain monopole antenna is proposed, consisting of a 45-degree tilted square patch and modified rectangular metallic ground plane. The antenna operates from 2.6 GHz to 9.7 GHz with a maximum gain of 2.3 dBi. A dual-layer aperture-type FSS is designed with a passband from 5.9 GHz to 9.2 GHz, and it is combined with the proposed monopole antenna. The combination covers the selective frequency band from 5.5 GHz to 8.7 GHz with a stable gain of around 5 dBi. Another FSS is designed with a stop-band from 4.1 GHz to 5.4 GHz and two passbands on either side, covering dual bands from 2.48 GHz to 3.3 GHz and 5.5 GHz to 10 GHz.

Summary: In this study, a high-gain, high-efficiency, and high-isolation Ku/Ka-band dual-frequency shared-aperture antenna array using a frequency selective surface (FSS) was investigated. The antenna consists of an 8 x 8 Ka-band and a 4 x 4 Ku-band printed double-sided dipole arrays. The antenna array achieved significant improvements in gain, efficiency, and isolation through the use of FSS and double-sided parallel striplines.

Summary: This paper presents the design of a wideband and high gain Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) loaded antenna for ultra-wideband (UWB) wireless applications. The antenna, consisting of a monopole and an FSS reflector, achieves wide operational bandwidth and size reduction through modifications to a conventional rectangular monopole antenna. The addition of an FSS enhances the performance of the antenna, resulting in improved gain and increased bandwidth at the lower frequency band. Both simulation and measurement results confirm the wideband impedance bandwidth and stable gain of the antenna.

Summary: In this paper, an array antenna that can work in reflection and transmission modes simultaneously or separately is proposed. The reflection and transmission at different frequencies are achieved by designing and implanting frequency selective surfaces for the antenna. Experimental results show that the proposed antenna has a peak gain of 24.6 dBi in reflection mode at 12 GHz and 21.3 dBi in transmission mode at 7 GHz.
