Circular Polarization Dielectric Resonator Antenna Excited by Single Loop Feed

A new feeding method for the circular polarization (CP) dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) is proposed in this letter. Two orthogonal modes (TE^x_δ11, TE^y_1δ1,) of the rectangular DRA are excited by a 90° phase difference of the differential and common modes currents of the proposed feeding structure. To demonstrate the good CP performance of the proposed method, a right‐hand CP DRA for a global positioning system was designed. The impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna for S₁₁相似文献

The Trapezoidal Dielectric Resonator Antenna

The operational concepts of the trapezoidal dielectric resonator antennas (DRAs) are presented and their performance is studied theoretically and experimentally. The rectangular parallelepiped is a special case of the more general trapezoid and therefore a comparison between both is useful in order to highlight their similarities and differences. It is shown in this paper that the inverted trapezoidal DRA exhibits a significantly larger impedance bandwidth than the rectangular parallelepiped, while the rest of their properties remain similar. Based on that, two versions of a probe-fed wide-band linearly polarized (LP) DRA are designed by combing the resonances of the first two lower-order modes of the trapezoidal DRA. The resulting impedance bandwidth exceeds 55% $(S _{11} ≪ -10~{rm dB})$ and the patterns are broadside with low cross-polarization. The antennas are simple to fabricate and they can be easily made to be mechanically stable. The numerical analysis was performed with a commercially available FEM solver and an in-house developed finite-volume-time-domain (FVTD) code. The measurements confirmed the results of the simulations.

Broadband Dielectric Resonator Antenna With Metal Coating

A broadband dielectric resonator (DR) antenna is proposed, which consists of a rectangular DR coated with metal on three sides and placed on a ground plane. The structure is analyzed by modelling the dielectric-air interface as perfect magnetic conductor (PMC). A coplanar waveguide (CPW) with terminating slots is used to feed the antenna. Measurement results exhibit a wide bandwidth of about 47% over which the E_thetas pattern on the horizontal plane is nearly omnidirectional. The 10-dB bandwidth of this broadband DR monopole covers 4.2-6.8 GHz. Hence, it can be used for WLAN 802.11a applications     

New Half-Hemispherical Dielectric Resonator Antenna for Broadband Monopole-Type Radiation

A new half-hemispherical dielectric resonator antenna (h-HDRA) is proposed and a two-element h-HDRA configuration is employed to design a broadband monopole-type radiator. Two half sections of a hemispherical DRA are employed to enhance the impedance bandwidth by introducing an additional resonant mode. Since the new geometry of an h-HDRA is studied here for the first time, it is characterized using simulation and experimental studies. Two closely spaced resonant modes, which in a two-element h-HDRA generate monopole-type radiation are investigated. Results for both the single and two-element h-HDRAs are presented. As much as 35% impedance bandwidth (S₁₁<-10dB) with more than 5 dBi peak gain, 99.08% efficiency and monopole-type radiation pattern has been demonstrated using a prototype occupying a compact volume measuring 0.48lambda₀ by 0.2lambda₀ approximately, lambda₀ being the wave length corresponding to the center of the impedance bandwidth     

Four-Element Cylindrical Dielectric Resonator Antenna for Wideband Monopole-Like Radiation

A new four-element cylindrical dielectric resonator (CDR) array is proposed as a wideband low profile monopole-like antenna. Unlike previous investigations, the present antenna is easy to design and excite as it employs the dominant$ HEM_11delta$mode in each CDR. Ansoft's HFSS based design data and experimental results are presented. As much as 29% matching bandwidth$( S_11≪-10 dB)$with monopole-like radiation pattern over the entire band has been achieved with 4 dBi peak gain from a prototype occupying a very compact space measuring$0.6lambda_0$by 0.1$lambda_0$approximately.     

Bandwidth Enhancement of Circularly Polarized Dielectric Resonator Antenna

Axial‐ratio (AR) bandwidth enhancement is achieved for a circularly polarized (CP) cylindrical dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) using a wideband hybrid coupler (WHC) combined with dual probe feed. The presented WHC, comprised of a Wilkinson power divider and a wideband 90° shifter, delivers good characteristics in terms of 3 dB power splitting and consistent 90° (±5°) phase shifting over a wide bandwidth. In turn, the proposed CP DRA, for the employment of the WHC, in place of conventional designs, provides a significant enhancement on AR bandwidth and impedance matching. The antenna prototype with the WHC exhibits a 3 dB AR bandwidth of 48.66%, an impedance bandwidth of 52.5% for voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) ≤ 2, and a bandwidth of 44.66% for a gain of no less than 3 dBi. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed WHC is suitable for broadband CP DRA design.

Dielectric Resonator Antenna on Silicon Substrate for System On-Chip Applications

This paper presents for the first time the design and performance of a novel integrated dielectric resonator antenna fabricated on a high conducting silicon substrate for system on-chip applications. A differential launcher to excite the ${rm TE}_{01delta}$ mode of the high permittivity cylindrical dielectric resonator was fabricated using the IBM SiGeHP5 process. The proposed antenna integrated on a silicon substrate of conductivity 7.41 S/m has an impedance bandwidth of 2725 MHz at 27.78 GHz, while the achieved gain and radiation efficiency are 1 dBi and 45% respectively. The design parameters were optimized employing Ansoft HFSS simulation software. Very good agreement has been observed between simulation and experimental results. The results demonstrate that integration of dielectric resonator antennas on silicon is viable, leading to the fabrication of high efficient RF circuits, ultra miniaturization of ICs and for the possible integration of active devices.
