The bandwidth of a Jerusalem AMC was investigated based on the equivalent circuit model. Using the circuit model and the derivative of the admittance(Y'), the relation between the bandwidth and various circuit parameters was analyzed. It was shown that the substrate thickness and permeability enhance the bandwidth whereas the loadings on FSS grid degrade the bandwidth. Among the two loadings, the capacitive loading had better bandwidth characteristics than the inductive loading. AMC with single polarization was suggested to relax the bandwidth degradation by the inductive loading.
