Abstract :
A novel microstructure with two sets of Omega -shaped conductive elements is suggested. The material is modelled by uniaxial bianisotropic constitutive relations. With specific material parameter values, a lossy layer can serve as a nonreflecting shield. If losses are small, the material is suited for low-reflection antenna radomes.
