“…So, a variety of CP reflectarrays have been proposed in the literature using LP feeder [2][3][4][5][6][7][8] and CP feeder [9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. A reflectarrays using linearly polarized feed can be used where its polarization runs parallel to the diagonal line of the square cell element by tilting the feed by 45 • , and its linearly polarized field is decomposed into two equal components along the sides of the square cell.…”

“…The element rotation technique for designing CP reflectarray was first reported by Huang and Pogorzelski [9], where the patch element is connected with two orthogonal microstrip delay lines of different lengths. Later, an element of the split ring structure was developed by Han et al [10] and Strassner et al [11] for simplifying the CP element structure. The reversal of polarization due to the ground plane is canceled out by the presence of these CP elements, and an element rotation of ∆Φ results in a 2∆Φ phase delay of the backscattering.…”

Abstract-Single-layer circularly polarized (CP) reflectarrays in the Ka-band are presented in this paper. Three reflectarray (RA) models are designed and measured, using geometrically dissimilar elements. Each element is analyzed individually and optimized to obtain good performance within the operating frequency band. To compensate the spatial delay from feed to the elements at RA surface, the angular rotation technique has been employed for obtaining reflected phase curve. The performances of the antennas are analyzed at 30 GHz, exhibiting 13.3% of 1.5 dB gain bandwidth, while the axial ratio bandwidth is less than 3 dB in the whole operating band.

“…In the past decades, several techniques have been proposed to achieve dual-band performance of the reflectarray, such as elements printed on a single layer [4][5][6] or two layers [7][8][9], or using frequency selective surface (FSS)-backed structures [10][11][12].…”

“…In another two-layer configuration, thin membranes were utilized to achieve X/Ka-dual-band CP performance and high efficiency was achieved at both bands [8]. However, using a two-layer configuration has certain disadvantages such as additional cost, manufacture complexity and increased weight.…”

Abstract-Two single-layer X/Ku dual-band dual-polarization reflectarray antennas of different sizes with double parallel dipole elements are presented. Elements of the two bands are set to two orthogonal linear polarizations and placed in interlaced grid. The proposed reflectarrays operate in two frequencybands within X-band centered at 10 GHz and Ku-band centered at 13.58 GHz. The smaller size reflectarray with elements arranged in a 13 × 13 grid for X-band and in a 12 × 12 grid for Kuband is designed and simulated first. Based on the excellent dual-band performance of the small size reflectarray, then a larger size prototype has been designed, manufactured and measured. Measured results demonstrate the maximum gain of 28.54 dB with 50.93% aperture efficiency at 10 GHz and 31.06 dB with 51.34% aperture efficiency at 13.58 GHz, which show desirable dual-band dual-polarization radiation performance.

“…To overcome this disadvantage several multiband and broadband antennas have been used to increase the band width [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Multi band antennas can be implemented in single layer or multilayer configuration [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9].…”
