In this research article, the superformula is used to design the geometry of a frequency selective surface (FSS) unit cell, which resembles the shapes found in nature. The designed shape of unit cell is like petals, which may take different form by varying the values of six parameters. The proposed FSS unit cell has both angular and polarization stabilities of incident wave. For the miniaturization of FSS and decrease of resonance frequency, interdigital capacitances (IDCs) are devised in the FSS structure, which do not deteriorate angular and polarization stabilities. The dimensions of the unit cell are 10 mm × 10 mm and the resonance frequency is specified as 3.5 GHz. An equivalent circuit is derived for the unit cell to evaluate its frequency responses. Its performance as the transmission coefficient is obtained by the equivalent circuit and full-wave simulation. The effects of variations of the geometrical dimensions of the FSS unit cell on its performance are studied. A prototype model of proposed FSS is fabricated and measured. The performance of its equivalent circuit, full-wave computer simulation results and measured data are compared and are shown to be in good agreement.
