Abstract
Future multimission communications satellites will require a single reflector antenna to operate at three or more frequency bands. The paper describes the frequency responses of two single-layer frequency-selective surfaces suitable for this application, together with their crosspolar performance. These surfaces are alternatives to multilayer FSS currently being proposed and generally offer better crosspolarisation performance with reduced mechanical complexity.
