Reflectors are a very important tools in counteracting the space borne or airborne SAR imaging systems. Because they can be used in the form of decoy and camouflage protection designs due to their high level RCS. The remarkable thing on this mission is that the SAR radar is capable of sending the wave to earth in any direction, with any incident angle and in any frequency band, and capturing sensitive areas. The design of such an all-directional, multi-band reflector, and wide angles reflector is very complicated because the reflex function depends on various parameters such as the dimensions, shape and material of the reflector, the frequency, the incident angle, and the polarization of the radiated wave. Existing refractors generally have a high RCS in a particular direction at a specific frequency and at a narrow viewing angle. In this paper, we will attempt to design a refractor of all directions, multiple bands and wide angles using shape structures.
