Abstract :
A novel leaky-wave reflector using heterodyne mixing is proposed and demonstrated experimentally. This reflector uses a unique antenna element and is capable of reflecting an incoming signal to any arbitrary angle by controlling an LO frequency in real time. It may be fully integrated and refined for several commercial and military applications.
