A single layer novel compact frequency selective surface which is used in reflector antenna is designed and simulated. The proposed unit cell reflects electromagnetic waves in K and Ka band with maximum reflection occurring at 22.62 GHz and 35.44 GHz respectively. The designed FSS find its application in satellite communication. A crossed dipole structure in center and two-legged structure in corners with square loop in each quadrant makes the FSS unit cell structure. The FSS is designed with oblique incidence for transverse electric and transverse magnetic polarization with return loss 0.3 dB in 22.62 GHz and less than 0.5 dB in 35.44 GHz. The proposed work shows frequency independence against oblique angle of incidence. The simulated result from CST microwave studio is compared with other similar works.
