Proloid & Uniform Dielectric Reflectors

Proloid and uniform dielectric lens reflectors are used for radar cross section enhancement using lenses with the same dielectric constant throughout the lens. The front of the proloid is a prolate spheroid whose dimensions and focal length are a function of dielectric constant. The front of the uniform dielectric lens reflector is a hemisphere whose focal length is a function of dielectric constant. It provides a viewing angle of about 100 degrees at millimeter wave frequencies.
