Abstract(s)
In this paper we present the design of an antenna, operating in the Ku-band, conceived for wireless power transfer systems. It comprises an hemispherical dielectric lens, fabricated using 3D printing technology, fed by a microstrip patch antenna array. The conjugation of the dielectric lens with the microstrip patch array allows the development of a compact high gain antenna. The antenna presents a matched bandwidth between 12.7 and 13.15 GHz and a maximum gain of 18.1 dBi at each element.
