Abstract
An antenna system includes an antenna and a passive device for angular deflection of a main radiation lobe of the antenna, characterized in that the device consists of a lens, said lens having a constant thickness and having a progressive relative permittivity between an inner edge of the lens located on the side of the geometric center of the antenna and an outer edge of the lens located on the side of a periphery of the antenna, the profile of the relative permittivity as a function of distance to the geometrical center of the antenna being adapted such that the lens deflects the main radiation lobe of the antenna by a predefined deflection angle over at least a portion of an operating frequency band of the antenna.
