Abstract
This paper presents an offset-feed reflectarray with a tilt beam to 57.6/spl deg/ away from the broadside at 38.5 GHz. It operates 311 identical modified square patches with different delay lines at higher-order degenerated (2, 0) and (0, 2) modes. A prototype antenna is built and tested, showing the directivity 29.2 dBi, 3-dB beamwidth 6.6/spl deg//6.8/spl deg/ (Az/El) and aperture efficiency 40.3% at 38.5 GHz.
