Abstract
A metal-only reflectarray (MOR) antenna for 77 [GHz] was analyzed with the equivalent surface current sources. The equivalent current sources can be used to produce the incident fields radiated from a feed. When a feed is an open-ended rectangular waveguide (OERW), the calculated antenna gains for the equivalent current sources, point source, and CST Microwave Studio (MWS) are 31.8, 30.0, and 31.6 [dBi], respectively. The simulated results of the equivalent current sources and CST MWS are in good agreement with each other in terms of the antenna gain.
