Abstract

This paper presents analysis of non-focal Rotman lens antenna design. A ten beam prototype feeding an 20-element antenna array working in ISM band has been simulated using RLD v1. 7 software. Simulation results show that the designed lens shows good performance in the operating frequency band of 2. 4Ghz showing a return loss of -17db.
