Abstract
A compact dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) for wideband applications is proposed. Two cylindrical dielectric resonators which are asymmetrically located with respect to the center of a rectangular coupling aperture are fed through this aperture. By optimizing the design parameters, an impedance bandwidth of about 29%, covering the frequency range from 9.62 GHz to 12.9 GHz, and a gain of 8 dBi are obtained. Design details of the proposed antenna and the results of both simulation and experiment are presented and discussed.
