Annotation: The object of this article is beamforming scheme based on printed phased Ku-band reflectarray. The structure of this reflectarray and the topology of simple resonator are described. The ability of competition with parabolic reflector antennas despite the lower values of the coefficient of surface utilization was shown. It was found that the developed Kuband reflectarray meets modern requirements for antenna systems. The resultants radio characteristics of designed reflectarray are given in the conclusion of the article.
