Abstract :
This paper presents an approach to simultaneous beamwidth and beam-steering control using an array-fed reconfigurable partially reflective surface (PRS) antenna. Requirements and trade-offs regarding the design of such antennas are discussed. The antenna operation is confirmed by full-wave simulations.
