1. A radome, comprising:
a dielectric wall; and one or more inductive metallic grids embedded in and/or disposed on the dielectric wall, each of the one or more grids includes compressed grid arms and is tuned to permit bandpass transmission at upper and lower frequencies, wherein compression of the compressed grid arms extends along entire respective lengths thereof and each compressed grid arm comprises first and second ends that respectively follow oppositely damped sinusoidal patterns.
