A heuristic interpretation of the phenomenon is given, as well as an analytical model, based on the transmission line network representation. Finally, the performance of the proposed structure is validated through a set of full-wave numerical simulations.EnglishAnalytical modelFrequency selective surfacesSmall apertureSubwavelength AperturesTransmission line networksFSS-based approach for the power transmission enhancement through electrically small aperturesArticle10.1007/s00339-011-6254-y1432-0630
