title = "Automotive radome design - Fishnet structure for 79 GHz",
abstract = "Metamaterials are considered as an option for quasi-optical matching of automotive radar radomes, lowering transmission loss and minimizing reflections. This paper shows a fishnet structure design for the 79 GHz band which is suitable for this type of matching and which exhibits a negative index of refraction. The measured transmission loss is 0.9 dB at 79 GHz. A tolerance study concerning copper plating, substrate permittivity, oblique incidence, and polarization is shown. Quasioptical measurements were done in the range of 60 - 90 GHz, which agree with simulated results.",
