Abstract :
The reciprocity principle and the reaction concept are employed to develop procedures for the design and analysis of microstrip reflectarrays in the receive mode. The new design procedure is shown to be fast and efficient, especially for dual-polarization applications. Examples are shown to illustrate the accuracy and efficiency of the receive mode design technique.
