N2 - One of the statutory principle of fifth generation mobile communications is the adaptive antenna system beam-forming technology that allow the radiation to be oriented to specific subscriber. Promising solution of the task can be using the passive antennas, which provide the direct beam-forming with no active component in the circuit, thus is low-cost. Lunenburg lens antenna is perspective solution of the task described above and allows the direct radiation to be formed in wide-angle range and keeps the required performance. Besides, it's slightly compact, so the antenna can be installed on various of city infrastructure elements, and the spheri cal form of device is advantage when the installation is performed on to the vehicles surface (train, car, aircraft, etc.) In the paper, the metallic sphere installation inside the spherical Lunenburg lens as a mean of attachment to constructions is described. The analysis results of the inner element impact to the antenna characteristics of the Lunenburg lens are provided. Analytical system model with the spherical conductor inside the antenna, which can also be used to calculate the presence of metallic particles impact to the average permittivity of the lens, is shown. The diffraction task is addressed by means of the Green's tensor functions application. The results of numerical modeling of the described antenna system using the Ansys Electronics Desktop (HFSS Design) are presented. Analytical and numerical calculations show that the limited-sized metallic sphere presence inside the lens does not significantly affect the focusing property of the device. The acquired formulas can be used in the future work to find the solution of the metallic element optimal radius approximation, using the neural networks as one of the mean to do it.
