Abstract :
We investigate the properties of the dipole frequency selective surfaces-loaded rectangular waveguide. The analysis is carried out by using the method of moments together with an algorithm that solves for a multilayer structure in the spectral domain. The eigenmodes are determined by searching for resonant solutions. Dispersion diagrams obtained from this approach are compared with those generated by commercial software simulations. Experimental validation is also performed
