Abstract
For an antenna device, in particular for a radar antenna device having excitation field and radome in front of it, the thickness of the radome is varied such that a location-dependent phase delay of the emitted or received wave front may be attained. Thus, tilts, in particular for the non-vertical installation of radar devices in motor vehicles, that lead to unwanted radiation lobe deviations, may be compensated for in a simple way.
