Abstract :
This paper details the design of a printed-circuit-board implementation of a 2D Luneburg lens. The refractive index of the lens is controlled through a combination of meandering crossed microstrip lines and varying their widths. The 12.4lambdao diameter lens is designed to operate in the Transverse Electromagnetic (TEM) mode at 13 GHz. The lens was designed, fabricated, and measured. The measured half power beamwidth of the experimental lens is 5.26deg.
