Abstract :
The application of Jerusalem cross frequency selective surface (FSS) for the enhancement of electromagnetic performance of A-sandwich radome is presented. The performance parameters of the Jerusalem cross FSS embedded radome panel are computed based on equivalent transmission line method in conjunction with equivalent circuit method (ECM). The EM analysis shows that the Jerusalem cross FSS embedded A-sandwich radome wall configuration has superior EM performance as compared to the A-sandwich wall alone configuration.
