Abstract :
In this paper, a planar near field magnetoinductive lens operating in the microwave range is presented. The proposed structure consists of two parallel planar arrays of metallic resonators, which are, once scaled in term of size as well as the array periodicity, the frequency of operation can be tuned over a wide frequency range. Thus the proposed design is potentially useful for many applications.
