Abstract
According to various aspects, exemplary embodiments are disclosed of shielding structures including one or more frequency selective surfaces, which may be used for attenuating, reflecting, and/or redirecting electromagnetic signals through open structures. Also disclosed are methods of using one or more frequency selective surfaces for attenuating, reflecting, and/or redirecting electromagnetic signals through open structures.
Claims23
A shielding structure comprising a frequency selective surface including at least a portion that is thermally conductive and/or conformable to a mating surface, whereby the frequency selective surface is operable for attenuating, reflecting, and/or redirecting electromagnetic signals at one or more bandstop frequencies that are propagating through a structure without completely blocking the structure when the frequency selective surface is positioned within structure.
A shielding structure comprising a frequency selective surface including electrically-conductive and/or electromagnetic energy absorptive members and dielectric members, wherein the frequency selective surface is thermally conductive and conformable to a mating surface.
A method comprising positioning a frequency selective surface relative to one or more electronic components such that the frequency selective surface is operable for blocking electromagnetic signals at one or more bandstop frequencies, wherein at least a portion of the frequency selective surface is thermally conductive and/or conformable to a mating surface.
