MUMBAI, India, July 5 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517059407 A) filed by Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd., Guangdong, China, on June 20, for 'luneburg lens and manufacturing method therefor, and luneburg lens antenna.'
Inventor(s) include Xie, Yongfeng; Chen, Zefeng; Zhao, Chunyu; Ji, Kuiwen; and Liu, Yue.
The application for the patent was published on July 4, under issue no. 27/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present application provides a Luneburg lens and a manufacturing method therefor, and a Luneburg lens antenna. The method comprises: preparing a core; mixing a first material with a second material according to a first proportion and coating the surface of the core with the mixture to form a first dielectric layer; processing the first dielectric layer to form a first lens layer; mixing the first material with the second material according to an i-th proportion and coating the surface of an (i-1)-th lens layer with the mixture to form an i-th dielectric layer; and processing the i-th dielectric layer to form an i-th lens layer, i being any integer from 2 to N in sequence, N being an integer and N being greater than or equal to 2, so as to obtain a Luneburg lens comprising the core and N lens layers covering the core. According to the method, the first material can be mixed with the second material according to parameters of each lens layer to manufacture the lens layers layer by layer, so that the manufacturing steps of the Luneburg lens are simplified, and the manufacturing process difficulty and the manufacturing costs of the Luneburg lens are reduced."
The patent application was internationally filed on Dec. 13, 2023, under International application No.PCT/CN2023/138414.
