An efficient method is presented for prediction of the input impedance of integrated elliptical lens antennas, excited by a focal radiator which consists of either a resonant slot or a slot-coupled patch. Simple equivalent networks are derived from this method which accounts for effects of multiple reflections inside the lens, which is useful for CAD purposes. Numerical results are presented to validate the equivalent networks. Furthermore, it is shown that these internal reflections significantly affect the input impedance of the primary source.

Abstract
An efficient method is presented for prediction of the input impedance of integrated elliptical lens antennas, excited by a focal radiator which consists of either a resonant slot or a slot-coupled patch. Simple equivalent networks are derived from this method which accounts for effects of multiple reflections inside the lens, which is useful for CAD purposes. Numerical results are presented to validate the equivalent networks. Furthermore, it is shown that these internal reflections significantly affect the input impedance of the primary source.
