Abstract :
A novel design of planar artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) based on a frequency-selective surface (FSS) for frequencies below 1 GHz is presented. A discussion about design parameters and the influence of dielectric substrate permittivity in the operating band and the operating bandwidth is presented. The discussion is supported by a finite element method (FEM) simulation.
