To this end, an innovative synthesis technique is developed to design the reflectarray surface currents that satisfy both radiation and arbitrary geometry constraints. Accordingly, the reflectarray design is formulated as an inverse source problem, and the non? radiating contribution of the current is profitably synthesized in order to cancel the overall current within selected "forbidden regions". Some preliminary results are presented to assess the effectiveness of the developed approach.}, url = {http://www.eledia.org/students-reports/787/}, keywords = {Geometry-constrained design, inverse source (IS) problems, nonradiating (NR) currents, reflectarray current synthesis.} }
