<p>The invention concerns an antenna implementation that comprises an electromagnetic lens (200) and at least one electromagnetically shielding member (120, 130). The electromagnetic lens is adapted to guide at least one electromagnetic signal by means of at least a variation in permittivity, The at least one electromagnetically shielding member encapsulates the electromagnetic lens partially so as to direct at least one electromagnetic signal propagating through the electromagnetic lens. The at least one electromagnetically shielding member can advantageously be part of an enclosure; said enclosure encapsulates partially the electromagnetic lens. The antenna can further comprise antenna transmission means (501-516) that contain wave guides (210). Said waveguides can advantageously be incorporated into the enclosure. The antenna is particularly suited for implementations using Substrate Integrated Waveguide techniques. SIW techniques allow miniaturization of the antenna and offer the advantage of low energy consumption as may be required in portable devices.</p> |
