Abstract
In this paper a new cell is proposed for reflectarray antenna and is used to design the antenna to obtain to maximum gain and efficiency using phase synthesis in a frequency band of 11 GHz up to 11.7 GHz for different beam angles. The proposed cell is a double ring of hexagon which introduces multiple resonances which can provide more than 360 degrees phase variation by changing the loop size. Design method is based on phase-only algorithm where amplitude of the field on the reflectarray surface is forced by the feed. A 1.2 m reflectarray is designed for different beam directions. The results show maximum directivity of 42 dB and maximum efficiency of 73% for the required bandwidth. Focal length is 1.5 m which is set for maximum efficiency.
