Some of these applications may require that these structures have response with multiple resonance bands. Other applications require that the FSS response have large frequency range, to meet the necessary requirements. FSS to design with these features there are numerous techniques cited in the scientific literature. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to examine some common techniques such as: Overlap of FSS; Elements combined; Elements Elements convolucionados and fractals. And designing multiband FSS and / or broadband selecting simple ways in terms of construction and occupy the smallest possible space, aiming at practical applications. Given these requirements, three projects FSS were performed: a technology applied to IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n and two projects for application in UWB. In project development, commercial software Ansoft DesignerTM and experimental results were satisfactory was used / Superf?cies seletivas em frequ?ncia (Frequency Selective Surface - FSS) s?o usadas frequentemente em diversas aplica??es em telecomunica??es. Algumas dessas aplica??es podem exigir que essas estruturas tenham resposta com m?ltiplas bandas de resson?ncia. Outras aplica??es exigem que as FSS tenham resposta em faixa larga de frequ?ncia, para atender aos requisitos necess?rios. Para projetar uma FSS com essas caracter?sticas existem in?meras t?cnicas citadas na literatura cient?fica. Assim, o prop?sito deste trabalho ? analisar algumas t?cnicas utilizadas tais como: Sobreposi??o de FSS; Elementos combinados; Elementos convolucionados e Elementos fractais. E projetar FSS multibanda e/ou banda larga selecionando maneiras simples em termos de constru??o e que ocupem o menor espa?o poss?vel, visando aplica??es pr?ticas. Tendo em vista estes requisitos, foram realizados tr?s projetos de FSS: um aplicado a tecnologia IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n e dois projetos para aplica??o em UWB. No desenvolvimento dos projetos, foi utilizado o software comercial Ansoft DesignerTM e os resultados experimentais se mostraram satisfat?rios
