Abstract :
In this paper we present a comparative study of flat and profiled lenses designed to operate in the GHz frequency range. Special attention is paid to focusing capabilities and bandwidth performance. Our results indicate that compared to the profiled lens, the flat lens with varying material parameters delivers a better performance in terms of scan capability and bandwidth.
