Modifications Improve Reflectarray Antennas (.PDF Download)

May 23, 2013

System performance is often limited by the available antennas, whether the system is a radar or communications network. A reflectarray antenna represents an alternative to conventional reflector antennas and can provide high gain, but is typically limited in bandwidth.1 It consists of a feed (usually a pyramidal horn antenna) and...
