Popis | In this paper, the phase function inside a graded index dielectric is directly defined using a closed-form formula to create a rotationally symmetric lens antenna. To maintain the refractive index within realistic limits, the refractive index is modified by the optical path rescaling method. An exemplar lens antenna provides a 2 dB improvement over the Luneburg lens at 10 GHz of the same length. The lens has a maximum refractive index of 2 and a side-lobe level of -25 dB. |
