Bifocal Dual-Reflectarray Antenna to Generate a Complete Multiple Spot Beam Coverage for Satellite Communications in Ka-Band

This paper presents a novel multibeam transmitting dual-reflectarray antenna able to generate a complete multiple spot coverage from a geostationary satellite in Ka-band (20 GHz). The bifocal design technique has been exploited for the first time to reduce by 50% the beam deviation factor with respe...
