In the first year, a novel beam-steerable circularly-polarized (CP) reflectarray will be developed. The unit cell of the proposed reflectarray is composed of a pair of orthogonal microstrip dipoles, responsible for the tuning of the reflection phases of vertical and horizontal polarization wave components, respectively. Each microstrip dipole is loaded with a varactor diode at its center. By properly adjusting the reverse bias voltage of the varactor, the reflection phase of the associated wave component can be tuned such that a CP main beam can be steered or formed at any specified direction. Besides, the hexagonal lattice of the proposed reflectarray increases the number of unit cells per unit area, which in turn lowers the quantization phase error and suppresses the specular reflection caused by the bottom ground plane. Lastly, by integrating the multi-channel analog output board, a microprocessor, system control code, and a lookup table containing the experimentally characterized data, an electronically beam-steerable CP reflectarray can be realized. In the second year of this project, the aforementioned reflectarray will be applied to microwave imaging application to simplify the system architecture. The associated imaging formulas with probe compensation will also be derived analytically and verified numerically. Thanks to the beam-steering characteristics of the reflectarray, the commonly used mechanical scanner is no longer necessary in the proposed setup, and the total time of scanning can be reduced drastically. Moreover, the CP radiation of the proposed reflectarray enables us to obtain simultaneously the two orthogonal components of the scattered fields. In this manner, the limitations on imaging and image distortion associated with the orientation or aspect ratio of the scatterer of interest could be mitigated, and therefore, the quality of the imaging results can be improved.波束掃瞄圓極化逆散射微波成像反射陣列Beam steeringcircular polarizationinverse scatteringmicrowave imagingreflectarrays波束可掃瞄之圓極化反射陣列之研製與應用(1/2)
