Row-Column Beam Steering Control of Reflectarray Antennas: Benefits and Drawbacks

This letter proposes a method for controlling single-polarized phase-only reconfigurable reflectarray antennas by rows and columns instead of element-by-element, which enables an important simplification of the control circuitry. First, the fundaments of the method are presented, and then the implic...
