Abstract :
Modelling studies of microstrip reflect-arrays are presented in this paper. A highly efficient full-wave analysis technique-a combination of the CG-FFT method and the complex discrete image technique-has been developed for the analysis of microstrip reflectarrays. Based on the technique, some trial designs have been implemented. Experimental and theoretical results are compared and found to be in good agreement
