Modelling and developing of microstrip rotman lens based on electric field analysis and defected ground structure.

Allocating multiple beams in desired angles is a cornerstone component in modern wireless systems. Scanning in microwave lens is independent of phase coupler and phase shifter compared to other scanning techniques. A discontinuity between the 50 Ω feeding lines and unknown lens cavity impedance has...
