    A polarization-independent ultrawideband metamaterial absorber is proposed for X-band applications. High absorptivity over an ultrawide spectrum is achieved by the combination of an artificial impedance surface (AIS) and a resistor-capacitor (RC) layer. In addition, the unique hexagonal shape of an AIS and RC layer enables polarization insensitivity. A circuit analysis is introduced based on a transmission-line model and shows good agreement with the full-wave analysis. Fabrication tolerance issues are considered with parametric studies in the electromagnetic simulation. The proposed absorber is fabricated on low-cost FR4 substrates, and its absorption performance is experimentally demonstrated at different angles and polarizations of incident electric fields.
