  • Abstract
    A new variety of the Fresnel zone planar lens with enhanced focusing quality is proposed. Each full-wave zone is divided into four quarter-wave subzones, which are covered by dielectric rings having equal thickness but different permittivities. Based on this planar lens configuration, a transmissive-type Fresnel-zone antenna for DBS-reception with more than 50% aperture efficiency is developed and examined theoretically
