The reflection and transmission coefficients of multilayer structures are computed by the Transmission Line Transfer Matrix Method (TLTMM) and it is shown that metamaterials (MTMs) act as frequency selective surfaces (FSSs). Several examples of multilayer structures are analyzed, which are composed of combination of common materials and MTMs with dispersion relations. Interesting and uncommon behaviors are observed for MTMs. Novel applications are treated by TLTMM and a matrix method. The physical realizability of MTM structures and their optimum design are also described.
