Abstract: This paper introduces the design of an aperiodic beam steerable planar array antenna using a novel strip-projection (SP) method, offering the reduced array elements with improved peak SLL with beam scan. The SP method generates the aperiodic lattice by projecting a section of the 3D body-centric tetragonal lattice onto the aperture and rotating it using Rodrigue's formula. The optimized lattice parameters are obtained using Jaya algorithm. The proposed SP method requires only three optimization parameters for any aperture dimensions and 21.9% less elements as compared to the rectangular lattice. For comparison, pinwheel-based aperiodic planar array antenna has been designed and analyzed. The peak SLL is maintained
