Synopsis:
A frequency-selective surface (FSS) is any periodic structure or surface designed to reflect, transmit or absorb electromagnetic fields based on frequency. These surfaces normally comprise periodically arranged metallic patch elements or aperture elements within a metallic screen. Frequency-selective surfaces have been most commonly used in the radio frequency region of the electromagnetic spectrum and find use in applications such as antenna radomes (filters in free space), polarizing surface and electromagnetic absorbers.
Biography:
Wenxing Tang was born in Guangxi, China. He received the Undergraduate Diploma from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Beijing, China, in 2002, the M.Sc. degree (distinction) in electrical engineering from Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, U.K., in 2005, and Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, U.K., in 2011. Since 2011, he is a Research Associate with the Microwave Research Group, Heriot-Watt University. His research interests include microwave and millimeter-wave tunable/reconfigurable filters, multilayer liquid crystal polymer (LCP) technology, frequency-selective surfaces and periodic structures.
