A low-frequency broadband, polarization-insensitive and wide-angle metamaterial absorber is presented, which is based on resistance frequency selective surface (RFSS). The unit cell of this absorber consists of cave cross planar metamaterial (CCPM), RFSS, dielectric substrate and metal backboard. The simulated results based on FDTD method indicate that with the absorptions of compared to the individual CCPM absorber and RFSS absorber, the absorption of the composite structure absorber of CCPM and RFSS is enhanced greatly, and it is greater than 80% and the absorption peak is over 98% in the whole frequency range of 15 GHz. The simulated absorptions under the conditons of different polarization and incident angles indicate that this composite structure absorber has polarization-insensitive and wide-angle absorption.
