In this paper, the flexible and reconfigurable frequency selective surface for C-band was designed using patch array and grid structure for radome and other curved surface applications. Frequency reconfigurability was obtained by varying the capacitance of varactor diode and flexibility is implemented by using flexible PCB. For the validity of the proposed structure, we fabricated the flexible and reconfigurable frequency selective structure and measured the frequency reconfigurability for different bias voltages and different curvature surfaces from the optimized design parameters. From the measurement results, we know that the proposed structure has the wideband reconfigurable frequency bandwidth of 6.05-7.08GHz. We can apply this proposed structure to the curved surface like as radome of aircraft or warship.
