@misc{10481/70261, year = {2021}, month = {7}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10481/70261}, abstract = {This paper presents an ef cient equivalent circuit approach (ECA), based on a Floquet modal expansion, for the study of the co- and cross-polarization in frequency selective surfaces (FSS) formed by periodic arrays of patches/apertures in either single or stacked con gurations. The ECA makes it possible the derivation of analytical expressions for the generalized scattering parameters associated with the proposed circuit networks. Furthermore, the proposed circuit approach is an ef cient surrogate model that can be combined with optimization techniques and arti cial intelligence algorithms for the ef cient design of FSS structures, saving efforts in the computation compared to time-consuming full-wave simulators and tedious synthesis (simulation-assisted) techniques. Due to the simplicity of the topology of the involved networks, the ECA can also be advantageously used to gain physical insight. The proposed approach is applied and validated in different FSS con gurations where the cross-pol component plays a fundamental role in the design, as in circular polarizers, polarization rotators, and reflectarray cells.}, organization = {Spanish Research and Development National Program TIN2016-75097-P RTI2018-102002-A-I00 TEC2017-84724-P PID2020-112545RB-C54 EQC2018-004988-P FPU18/01965}, organization = {Junta de Andalucia P18-RT-4830 B-TIC-402-UGR18}, publisher = {IEEE}, keywords = {Frequency selective surface}, keywords = {Equivalent circuit approach}, keywords = {Co- and cross-polarization terms}, keywords = {Metamaterials}, title = {Cross-Polarization Control in FSSs by Means of an Equivalent Circuit Approach}, doi = {10.1109/ACCESS.2021.3096715}, author = {Molero Jiménez, Carlos and Alex Amor, Antonio and Mesa, Francisco and Palomares Caballero, Ángel and Padilla De La Torre, Pablo}, }
