11 PREFACE The aim of this book is to present the modern design principles and analyses of lens antennas. It gives graduates and RF/microwave professionals the design insights in order to make full use of lens antennas. The reader might ask: Why is such a book considered necessary and timely? The reply we would bring to such an inquiry is that the topic has not been thoroughly publicized recently and so its importance has become somewhat underestimated. Furthermore, the work has brought about an opportunity to gather together the authors contributions to several areas of research where lens antennas have been promoted. Foremost among these are communications applications, where of course antennas play a key role and where we will show why certain advantages accrue from the particular characteristics of lens antennas. The major advantages of lens antennas are narrow beamwidth, high gain, low sidelobes and low noise temperature. Their structures can be more compact and weigh less than horn antennas and parabolic reflector antennas. Lens antennas, with their quasi-optical characteristics, also have low loss, particularly at near millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths where they have particular advantages. Beam shaping can be achieved by controlling the phase distribution across the lens aperture in a manner that can be more accurate and less costly than would be the case for a reflector. Such a shaped dielectric lens can be more economical to produce in small- to medium-scale production runs than other antenna types where certain niche applications are considered. In addition, spherical lens antennas have the benefit of no scan loss and wide bandwidth, with the option for multiple beams from a common aperture. Modern Lens Antennas for Communications Engineering serves as an excellent tool for RF/microwave professionals (engineers, designers, and developers) and industries with microwave and millimeter wave research projects. For university students, this book requires a prerequisite course on antennas and electromagnetic waves, which covers propagation, reflection, and transmission of waves, waveguides, transmission lines, and some other antenna fundamental concepts. Such a course is usually followed by design projects. This book can be used as further study material in such design projects. Advanced students and researchers working in the field of modern communications will also find this book of interest. Included is a bibliography of current research literature and patents in this area. Based on these credentials, this book systematically conducts advanced and up-todate treatment of lens antennas. It does not purport to present a far-reaching treatise on every aspect of lens antennas, but rather, following the introductory chapters, the ix
12 x PREFACE emphasis of the work is taken from the authors own research of recent years. Example designs are presented and the analysis of their performance detailed. A summary of each chapter is as follows. Chapter 1 gives an overview of different types of lens antennas and their history. It discusses basic principles of delay lenses (in which the electrical path length is increased by the lens medium), fast lenses (in which the electrical path length is decreased by the lens medium), materials for lenses, and applications for lens antennas. It attempts a fairly broad review of some quite disparate antenna types that are nevertheless classed as lenses such as the planar or frequency selective surface type and also the Fresnel zone variants of dielectric lenses. Antenna measurement techniques are also summarized. Chapter 2 reviews important wave propagations and antenna parameters, for the purpose of consistency in notation and easy referencing. The material progresses from uniform plane waves in various media, such as lossless and lossy dielectrics, to all important antenna parameters. Chapter 3 focuses on low-cost yet high-directivity dielectric polyrod antennas. Different feeding methods, maximum gain, and beam tilting are discussed in detail. A multibeam polyrod array is presented where this increases radiation coverage, and phase compensation is introduced to adjust beam direction. Chapter 4 tackles millimeter wave issues such as high path loss and high power consumption. It then explores the variety of millimeter wave lens antennas and novel design methods. Quasi-optical characteristics of lens antennas are identified for aiding design at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths. Chapter 5 discusses the properties of antennas which would be required for communications from high-altitude platforms. As such, it presents a case study where lens antennas were identified as being a potential solution for this niche area. Beginning with a system-level analysis of a cellular architecture employing spectrum reuse through multiple spot beams, the chapter goes on to show how a type of lens antenna, with shaped beam and low sidelobes, directly controls cochannel interference. A practical design and results are reported. Chapter 6 presents a summary of the properties of spherical lens antennas including the Luneburg lens and its relatives. Analytical techniques are discussed, beginning with ray tracing but then leading to the much more powerful spherical wave expansion technique. Lens construction problems are addressed, and then the properties of constant-index spherical lenses are summarized. Chapter 7 follows on from Chapter 6 and reports from several programs where hemispherical lens-reflector antennas were developed in practice. Here, a hemisphere with ground plane recovers the equivalent aperture of a spherical lens but in half the height a profound advantage where a low profile is required. A dual-beam lens antenna for satellite communications is reported, as is a constant-index lens reflector partially developed for aircraft-to-ground links. John Thornton Kao-Cheng Huang

15 1 INTRODUCTION John Thornton and Kao-Cheng Huang The topic of lens antennas was widely investigated during the early development of microwave antennas and was influenced by the extensive body of existing work from optics. Subsequently, interest declined somewhat as lens antennas were overtaken by reflectors for high efficiency, large aperture antennas; and by arrays for shaped-beam, multi-beam, and scanning antennas. Quite recently, as research interest has expanded into the use of millimeter wave and sub-millimeter wave frequency bands, lens antennas have again attracted developers attention. This chapter is organized as nine sections to introduce the basics of lens antennas. Section 1.1 gives an overview of lens antennas, including its advantages, disadvantages, and the materials encountered. This is followed by a discussion of antenna feeds at Section 1.2. Then Section 1.3 introduces the fundamentals of the Luneburg lens (a topic to which Chapters 6 and 7 are dedicated). Section 1.4 introduces quasi-optics and Section 1.5 treats design rules. A discussion of metamaterials for lens antennas makes up Section 1.6 and then the planar lens array, which is a relative of the reflect-array antenna, follows in Section 1.7. Applications are proposed in Section 1.8 and measurement techniques and anechoic chambers discussed in the final section. Modern Lens Antennas for Communications Engineering, First Edition.
