Abstract :
In this paper a phase-only power pattern synthesis for a-periodic reflectarray is presented. A proper strategy is proposed to mitigate the computational complexity and the effectiveness issues due to the non-uniform elements positioning and the adoption of a conformal structure. The results show that in the case of a-periodic RA better directivities and side lobe levels are achievable.
