Abstract :
Transmission/reflection-band centre ratios of about 1.3 can be attained with multiple layers of inductive or capacitive grids, or with single-layer arrays of more complex elements. The copolar losses and the linear crosspolar performance of a 4-layer inductive grid and a 2-layer array of concentric rings are compared to illustrate some of the problems that can arise experimentally.
