  • Abstract
    A bandpass FSS design is presented for dual-layer energy saving glass panels, with the aim to improve RF communication in modern buildings. The proposed FSS design provides satisfactory transmission from 0.5 to 2 GHz. This design has several advantages over recently proposed dual-band FSSs: (a) its transmission bandwidth is significantly wider; (b) it does not block important communication signals such as GSM around 1800 MHz; and (c) it secures 2.45 GHz WLAN signals by confining them to the interior of the building.
