Claim Text:
1. An antenna array system including an antenna and a radome disposed such that electromagnetic radiation transmitted with respect to the antenna passes through the radome, the radome comprising: multiple dielectric layers of varying thicknesses; and at least first and second dielectric inclusions, the first dielectric inclusions being distributed in a first pattern and each of the first dielectric inclusions spanning two or more of the multiple dielectric layers, and the second dielectric inclusions being spacially and dimensionally varied from the first dielectric inclusions and distributed in a second pattern, which is different from the first pattern, each of the second dielectric inclusions spanning one of the two or more of the multiple dielectric layers spanned by each of the first dielectric inclusions to be at least partially coplanar with the first dielectric inclusions.
