The-hybrid dielectric resonator antenna consisted of a cylindrical high-permittivity dielectric resonator, a rectangular slot, and two-rectangular patches were implemented. The hybrid dielectric resonator antenna had three resonant frequencies. The lower, middle, and higher resonant frequencies were associated with the rectangular slot, rectangular patches, and dielectric resonator, respectively. Parametric investigation was carried out using simulation software. The proposed hybrid dielectric resonator antenna had good agreement between the simulation results and the measurement results. The hybrid dielectric resonator antenna was implemented successfully for application in 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz of WLAN and 2.5/3.5/5.5 GHz of WiMAX simultaneously.

This paper presents a broadband hybrid slot-dielectric resonator antenna for radiofrequency (RF) energy-harvesting application. The antenna geometry consists of a simple pentagon-shaped dielectric resonator antenna (PDRA) excited by a microstrip feed underlying rectangular slot with narrow notch. It is investigated that the bandwidth of the proposed PDRA is improved significantly owing to electromagnetic coupling between feeding slot and the dielectric resonator. The measured results demonstrate that the proposed PDRA achieves an impedance bandwidth of 110.8%, covering the frequency range from 0.86 to 3 GHz in addition of stable radiation pattern with peak gain of 6.8 dBi and more than 90% radiation efficiency throughout the band, showing its suitability for RF energy harvesting application. For this to be feasible, the developed antenna is matched with the rectifier at two public telecommunication bands of GSM-900 and GSM-1800 using a compact dual-band hybrid matching network. The measured result demonstrates that the proposed dual-band rectenna system provides the peak efficiency of 63 and 59% for a load impedance of 4.7 kΩ at 0.9 and 1.8 GHz, respectively.


A dual frequency Dielectric Resonator antenna for wireless communication applications in the S and C bands with an operating frequency of 2.65GHz and 4.62GHz is presented. The patch is a dielectric material with a high dielectric constant value of 20. A 50Ω strip line is considered as feed and is coupled to the dielectric radiator via the rectangular slot etched in ground plane. The slot etched in ground plane is made so as to facilitate the power form the feed line to the radiator. The overall dimension of the antenna is 100mm×35mm×0.8mm. A dual frequency antenna has been proposed which will be operational at the frequencies of 2.65GHz and 4.62GHz with a gain of 4.42dB and 7.78dB respectively. Low cost FR4 material is been used as the laminate base for the antenna which will act as the dielectric material.
