OPTICAL COLLAGE REFLECTARRAY

摘要

A reflectarray for shaping electromagnetic radiation having a characteristic wavelength in an operating band of wavelengths, the reflectarray comprising: a planar backplane that reflects the electromagnetic radiation; a dielectric layer located on the backplane; a plurality of cells, each cell characterized by a maximum dimension less than the characteristic wavelength of the radiation and comprising an array of at least two antennas having different shapes that reflect the electromagnetic radiation; wherein the antennas in the plurality of cells are coplanar.
