Abstract：

In　this　communication,　an　electronically　reconfigurable　folded　reflectarray　antenna　(ERFRA),　which　includes　14　×　14　reflecting　elements　and　features　a　fully　planar　compact　configuration　and　wide-angle　beam-scanning　performance,　was　developed,　fabricated,　and　tested.　A　novel　reflecting　element　that　is　able　to　carry　out　cross-polarization　rotation　and　electronically　reconfigurable　1　bit　compensation　phases　was　first　developed.　After　experimentally　demonstrating　its　feasibility,　the　new　reflecting　element　was　then　applied　to　the　design　of　a　14　×　14　ERFRA,　with　a　planar　feed　in　the　center　of　the　reflectarray　and　a　beam-control　system　based　on　the　field-programmable　gate　array　(FPGA).　The　measurements　of　the　fabricated　ERFRA　prototype　show　a　wide　beam-scanning　range,　up　to　±60°,　a　peak　gain　of　17.07　dBi,　and　an　aperture　efficiency　of　about　13.2%.　©　1963-2012　IEEE.
