BANDWIDTH CONSIDERATIONS FOR A MICROSTRIP REFLECTARRAY [PDF]
The paper describes a theoretical investigation into a limited bandwidth operation of a microstrip reflectarray. Two main factors limiting the bandwidth are considered. One is related to the requirement of phase compensation to convert a spherical wavefront launched by a feed into a planar wavefront. The other one is linked to the limited phasing range

On the Reconfigurability of a Singly-Layered Dual-Band Reflectarray for Space Applications [PDF]
This paper presents a feasibility study of a singlylayered dual-band reflectarray for space applications. The data links should operate simultaneously at K-band downlink frequency band 17.7-20.2 GHz with left-hand circular polarization (LHCP) and at Ka ...

A Ku-Band Foldable Reflectarray Based on a Maltese-Cross Microstrip Element
Introduction. Reflectarrays have a number of design and functional advantages over their closest analogue - reflector antennas (RA). Although microstrip elements are the most preferred reflectarray elements, single-layer microstrip elements do not allow ...

Characterization of a Split Circle Element for Microstrip Reflectarrays
A split circular element is proposed as a unit cell for reflectarray antennas. The unit cell is derived from a circle divided into four equal sectors. The radius of two oppositely located sectors is then scaled by a certain factor to form the proposed ...

Near-field measurements of submillimeter-wave reflectarrays
We present results of experimental characterization of static 650-GHz reflectarrays. The reflectarrays are based on 123-µm circular microstrip patch antennas with tuning stubs as phase shifters. The static reflectarrays are considered as predecessors for
