In this paper, a novel structural Luneburg lens with local resonators is proposed. This lens allows the realization of subwavelength focusing in low-frequency range. The lens is achieved by graded refractive index from the lens's centre to the outer surface. Numerical simulations are conducted to obtain data on wave propagation waveform, maximum displacement amplitude, and full width at half-maximum (FWHM) of the lens's focal region. The results show that a broadband frequency range can be achieved for subwavelength focusing. This provides a straightforward and adaptable method for designing the structural Luneburg lens for numerous applications.
