摘要: In this paper, large extended hemispherical lenses are studied for a high-gain beam-steering antenna as function of directivity feed element, relative permittivity the lens material, and offset. Design guidelines necessary array design provided. A wide range permittivities directivities studied. The analysed with ray-tracing simulations using simplified radiation pattern.
