Abstract
The present invention relates to a partially reflective surface antenna and, more particularly, to a partially reflective surface antenna including a reflective board composed of arrays of microstrip antennas, and has advantages of low side lobe and high gain. It comprises: a substrate with an upper surface having a signal transmitting notch for transmitting and receiving a high frequency signal; a reflective board for partially reflecting the high frequency signal; and a plurality of supporting elements for supporting the reflective board on the substrate. The reflective board has a second antenna array and a first antenna array surrounded by the second antenna array, wherein the first and the second antenna array are composed of a plurality of first microstrip reflective units and a plurality of second microstrip reflective units, respectively. Besides, the distance between the first microstrip reflective units is smaller than the distance between the second microstrip reflective units.
