Abstract :
A novel single-layer reflectarray element with a crossed-dipole encompassed by an annulus patch, showing smooth phase characteristic curves, is proposed in this paper. Based on this element, a 94GHz single-layer reflectarray antenna has been designed. The results show that this novel element application has a great performance in millimeter-wave reflectarray antenna.
