Abstract A single-layer miniaturized tri-band frequency selective surface (FSS) for bandstop filtering applications has been proposed in this work. The metallic layer with four-branched meandered pattern connected in the center is engraved on a dielectric FR-4 substrate. The three stopbands operating at 2.6, 5.6, and 7.1 GHz provides −10 dB bandwidth of 437, 447, and 552 MHz respectively. The size of the unit cell is 0.067 λ∘ × 0.067 λ∘, where λ∘ is the wavelength of the first resonance frequency. As a figure of merit, the symmetric FSS structure provides the advantage of polarization independence. The proposed compact FSS structure exhibits a stable angular response up to 60° in TE and TM mode. Moreover, measurements obtained from the fabricated prototype are compared with the simulated results and are found to be in close agreement.
