Abstract
A new experimental single-layer phased switched screen that uses a pin diode controlled frequency selective surface to provide reactive impedance switching is described. The new design provides increased reflectivity bandwidth and reduced thickness compared to resistively switched screens. Experimental data are presented and compared to the results from a theoretical model.
