Reflection and transmission of laminated structures using metal wire array sheet

This paper proposes reflection and transmission controlling materials using the artificially designed material. As the artificially designed material, the metal wire array sheets are used here. The laminated structures consisting of the metal wire array sheet and dielectric layer are proposed. Reflection and transmission characteristics of these structures can be controlled by changing the sheet parameters such as wire diameter and spacing between the wires. The reflection and transmission of the constructed material are calculated by the transmission line theory. Both characteristics are confirmed by measurement.
