Resumen

In this paper, different configurations of multifaceted reflectarrays for small satellite platforms are evaluated.The reflectarrays are designed in a SATCOM band to generate a directive beam in dual-linear polarization. The performance and physical characteristics of both antennas are compared with a flat reflectarray of a similar aperture. The proposed multifaceted configurations improve the in-band performance antenna without an increase in the complexity of manufacture, satellite storage, and in-orbit deployment.
