In order to achieve large scanning angle and suppressing the grating lobes in beam scanning, SWS should be designed in the
parallel-plate waveguide (PPW), for example, dielectric-filled PPW which reduces waveguide wavelength.
Its origin stems from radiation of fast switching surface current density mainly flowing through vias, which is conducted in the
parallel-plate waveguide formed by the power planes of the circuit [4].

Abstract: A passive, low-cost device built with a textured surface, consisting of a periodic lattice of metal patches, embedded in an inhomogeneous
parallel-plate waveguide is proposed.
In particular, the
parallel-plate waveguide between the annular and large reflectors should introduce a phase shift of 180[degrees].
There, a width-tapered half-width microstrip LW line embedded between two metallic planes (8 mm thick
parallel-plate waveguide) has been used (Figure 7).

A
parallel-plate waveguide will be formed between top and bottom planes.
The operation of the TL-lens was verified by conducting a measurement inside a
parallel-plate waveguide. By placing a single layer of the TL-lens inside a
parallel-plate waveguide with the same height as the lens, we can effectively simulate the free-space scenario where the lens is infinitely periodic in the vertical direction.
