Abstract :
The problems of constructive synthesis of Cassegrain reflector antenna as integral circuit are considered. On a comparison with known constructions of such antennas the offered antenna has a series of advantages, namely, greater adaptability to manufacture of printed elements reflectarrays and more high level of a transparency of a polarizing filter due to the introducing into antenna construction of a ≪clarifying≫ grating. Radiation patterns of Cassegrain reflector antennas based on folded reflectarrays of printed elements are presented.
