Abstract
An improved synthesis procedure is presented in this letter for the design of microstrip reflectarray antennas. The iterative projection based algorithm is modified to include the effect of different incidence angles on the reflectarray elements in the evaluation of the design curve. Experimental results on an X-band prototype of unequal microstrip patch elements are reported.
