Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0310414A2] To modify the antenna pattern of an existing array antenna (12), a unitary assembly made up of a dielectric lens (13) of appropriate shape, a horizontal polarization filter (17), a circular polarizer (19) and absorbing material (21,23,24) are disposed to cover the aperture of the existing array antenna (12). A quarter-wave matching element (15) is provided on the transmission faces of the lens (13). The circular polarizer (19) is made of five layers of dielectric material, each layer being provided with a directional pattern of metallic meander lines (19a, 19b, 19c, 19d, 19e).
