Abstract :
A study about switched beam reflectarrays has been carried out as a task on the Spanish project ARCO, to know the possibilities of this kind of antenna. The study has demonstrated that is possible to have a control of the radiation pattern by using switches on the reflector surface, and were studied different configurations in order to simplify manufacturing process in big reflectarrays
