Abstract

This paper describes the analysis and design of anoffset multi-faceted reflectarray structure composed of threeidentical panels distributed following a parabolic cylinder.Working in Ka-band, the antenna is designed to generate apencil beam in the broadside direction of the structure. Itsperformance is compared with a flat reflectarray of similaraperture size. The multi-faceted reflectarray design achieves animprovement in band performance compared to its classicsingle panel version.
