Abstract :
The authors develop surfaces which will transmit a circularly polarized incident wave of one circularity and reflect a wave of opposite circular polarization. Preliminary results for typical circular polarization selective surfaces are given. These results clearly provide the proof of this principle. The results are expected to improve with the use of more accurate methods of construction of these panels. These surfaces would be ideal for use in cm- and mm-wave regions.<>
