In this work, preliminary results of the design of a double layer planar reflectarray are presented with emphasis on its frequency response. Since the number of free parameters is big, the design has been carried out using evolutionary optimization, in order to adjust the elements size and position on the reflector, i.e. the reflection phase distribution on the reflecting surface; in order to achieve high gain radiation pattern in the broadside direction and to reduce the side lobe level
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
