Systematic Framework for Reflectarray Synthesis Based on Phase Optimization

الملخص EN

A new systematic synthesis framework for reflectarray antennas is discussed.

Optimization based on the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm is used to obtain the phase distribution of the reflection coefficients required on the reflectarray surface, in order to achieve the pattern specifications.

A Local Multipoint Distribution System (LMDS) base station working in the 24.5–26.5 GHz frequency band has been proposed to evaluate the method.

The 3D requirements are defined by the combination of the elevation and templates and considering a maximum acceptable ripple in the beam shaping.

Some illustrative results are obtained.
