Abstract
A phased antenna array is operable to generate a radio-frequency beam having a first beam angle. A converging lens adjusts the beam generated by the phased antenna array to output a first adjusted beam. A diverging lens adjusts the first adjusted beam to output a second adjusted beam having a second beam angle. The converging lens and the diverging lens are positioned relative to the phased antenna array such that the second beam angle is greater than the first beam angle, such that a scan range of the phased antenna array is increased.
