The future adaptability of reflectarray antenna requires a thorough investigation of its main conventional features for expected improvements. Its existing design featuring at microwave and millimeterwave frequencies can be considered as a basic platform for further studies. In this paper, a thorough review of reflectarrays on some selected areas is presented. Its design implementations involving gain and efficiency improvement are discussed in details. Various design approaches have been critically analyzed at the unit cell and full reflectarray levels for a plausible enhancement in the featured parameters with 5G compatibility.
