Single-feed multibeam conformal transmitarrays using a superposition method are presented in this letter. The arrays consist of ultrathin Huygens elements with independent amplitude and phase manipulations. Three cylindrical conformal transmitarrays with dual-beam radiation patterns are designed at 10 GHz, producing dual beams at ±30°, +30°, and -20°, +30° and -10°, respectively. As an experimental validation, the prototype with symmetrical dual beams is fabricated and measured. Two beams at +29° and -28° along the H-plane are achieved with a measured 18.29 dBi peak gain. The gain difference between the two beams is 0.13 dB. Good agreement between simulation and measurement is observed.
