from a Frequency-Selective Surface (FSS) to form the Frequency-Selective Guide
(FSG). This model is used to expand the understanding of the FSG and known mode
content that it can support. The results of the model have been authenticated directly
by measurement techniques. The range of FSGs measurements undertaken was
expanded to enable greater understanding of the structure utilising parameters that
could not be included in the theoretical model. This extensive measurement set
combines with the modelled data to provide a very comprehensive understanding of
the FSG operation based on both physical and theoretical data. [Continues.]
