Abstract

A new approach for obtaining metasurfaces realized by employing Frequency Selective Surfaces (FSSs) with small periodicity printed on a new class of high dielectric constant materials is presented. The synergic use of ad-hoc engineered materials and innovative electromagnetic design provides an improvement of the overall device in terms of size reduction and radiative properties.
