Abstract :
A design method of reflectarray by the induced electromotive force method is proposed. The effect of oblique incidence from a primary source to a reflectarray element is included in the design process of the reflectarray by the proposed method. The CPU time for design of the reflectarray by the proposed method is small because mutual coupling between reflectarray elements are ignored. The reflectarray which consists of a dipole and parasitic dipole element is designed by the proposed method and the performance of the proposed method is shown.
