Abstract
The paper presents an experimental investigation of a cylindrical dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) with a conducting strip loaded on its top surface enabling circular polarisation. A simple 50Ξ© microstrip transmission line excites the antenna. The reflection, polarisation, and radiation characteristics of the antenna are studied. The antenna exhibits circular polarisation with an axial ratio (AR) < 3 dB over a bandwidth of 3.14% and a beam width of 60Β°. Β© 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract A stripβexcited dielectric resonator antenna with a strip displacement is investigated theoretically and experimentally. The strip displacement provides another degree of freedom in the antenna design. Both the input impedance and radiation pattern of the new configuration are studied i
A coaxial-fed hexagonal dielectric resonator antenna (HDRA) producing circular polarization is investigated experimentally. Circular polarization is achieved by exciting the orthogonal HE 11β¦ modes of the HDRA in phase quadrature. The return-loss, impedance, and radiation characteristics are studied
An aperture-coupled dielectric resonator antenna using a strip-line feed is in¨estigated experimentally. As compared to the pre¨ious microstrip-line ¨ersion, the new configuration eliminates the problems of backside radiation through the slot and frequency dispersion. The measured return loss, radia
