Abstract

In this paper, a liquid crystal tunable frequency selective surface (FSS) in S-band is proposed. The relative permittivity of liquid crystal can be changed from 2.5 to 3.3, with the change of bias voltage applied to it. In that way, the FSS proposed in the paper has a tunable feature. The full-wave simulation of the tunable FSS is carried out in the paper and the equivalent circuit model (ECM) is extracted. The SPICE-based simulation results are consistent with the full-wave simulation, which verify the validity of the ECM of the FSS. The pass band shifts from 3.612 GHz to 3.954 GHz with a relative bandwidth of 9.04% when the bias voltage of liquid crystal changes.
