  • Abstract
    This paper investigates the performance of the single slot ring element for Ka-band reflectarray designs. Using the element rotation technique, two Ka-band circularly polarized reflectarray prototypes are designed and implemented, with different thicknesses of the substrate. The bandwidth is significantly enhanced when a thick substrate is used.
