Abstract
The factors which influence the design of lenses suitable for imaging at millimetre wavelengths are discussed. Examples are given of optical designs for a military tracking application, firstly for use with an open ended waveguide array, and secondly for use with monolithic arrays, each covering a field of view of ±20°.
