We evaluate the transmission and conductance through magnetic barrier
structures in bilayer graphene. In particular we consider a magnetic
step, single and double barriers, delta-function barriers, as well as
barrier structures that have average magnetic field equal to zero. The
transmission depends strongly on the direction of the incident electron
or hole wavevector and gives the possibility to construct a
direction-dependent wavevector filter. The results contrast sharply with
previous results on single-layer graphene. In general, the angular range
of perfect transmission becomes drastically wider and the gaps narrower.
This perfect transmission range decreases with the number of barriers,
the barrier width, and the magnetic field. Depending on the structure, a
variety of transmission resonances occur that are reflected in the
conductance through the structure.
