A double recurrence cylindrical resonator arrangement along meander opening space inclined with microstrip feed is prescribed to deliver desired recurrence performance. An outlining structure involves cylindrical dielectric arrangement and meander opening space. A meander space resonator originates from the ground plane. Through adapted prototype variables, the cylindrical resonator performs at the subsidiary frequency (2.36 GHz) as well as the opening frame functions at lowering channel (915 MHz), while utilizing the FR 4-substrat and Both resonators have two discrete radiation descriptions. Referencing the ultimate goal of accomplishing the quality of the prescribed display, for example acceptable parameters, reflection coefficient and transmission range. The modeled framework demonstrates that the reflection coefficient <-10 dB and can be exhibited throughout the functioning ranges with enormous impedance and enhanced radiation illustration. The organized reception apparatus arrangement has little in estimate, less weight, lessened cost and satisfactory isolation. The intended model is sensible for WBAN applications.

A novel pattern reconfigurable antenna concept utilizing rectangular dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) placed over dielectric substrate backed by a ground plane is presented. A dual strip excitation scheme is utilized and both excitation strips are connected together by means of a 50 Ω microstrip feed network placed over the substrate. The four vertical metallic parasitic strips are placed at corner of DRA each having a corresponding ground pad to provide a short/open circuit between the parasitic strip and antenna ground plane, through which a shift of90°in antenna radiation pattern in elevation plane is achieved. A fractional bandwidth of approximately 40% at center frequency of 1.6 GHz is achieved. The DRA peak realized gain in whole frequency band of operation is found to be above 4 dB. The antenna configuration along with simulation and measured results are presented.

A compact dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) suitable for wideband applications is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna is mainly composed by a notched cylindrical dielectric resonator (DR) coated with a metal surface on the top and a finite ground plane where the presented DR is placed. This antenna is very simple in structure and has a very low overall height of0.14λminat its lowest operation frequency. A comprehensive parametric study is carried out based on Ansoft HFSS to optimize the bandwidth. The proposed antenna has been successfully simulated, optimized, fabricated, and measured. The measurement results demonstrate that the proposed design produces an impedance bandwidth of more than 75%, ranging from 2.9 GHz to 6.7 GHz for the reflection coefficient less than −10 dB. In particular, consistent broadside radiation patterns, stable gain, and high radiation efficiency are also obtained within the operation frequency band.

This study examines a cuboid dielectric resonator antenna with partial ground plane. The dielectric resonator of the antenna is designed with high permittivity, ɛr=30. The dimension used to design this cuboid dielectric resonator antenna was based on the dielectric waveguide model (DWM). Meanwhile, the feeding structure depends on the microstrip feed line that resides above the FR4 substrate. The significance of this study is to obtain a reconfigurable radiation pattern. Switches were used to operate the two array elements with phased control in order to obtain reconfigurable pattern, by controlling the switches, the results produced three different radiation patterns at 2.6 GHz with total efficiency 88%. Hence, this proposed antenna can be used for Long Term Evolution (LTE) of band 7 and band 38 with an impedance bandwidth of more than 200 MHz. This study was implemented in a CST Microwave Studio. 


DRA’s are used for 5G communications of large bandwidth at sub 6GHz and millimeter to Terahertz. The channel capacity can achieve a very high data rate i.e. C=Blog2(1+SNR) where C is the channel capacity and B is the bandwidth of the channel. The cylindrical resonator antenna operating in hybrid HEM11⸹ mode. In this paper a cylindrical dielectric resonator antenna(CDRA) with frequency range (2-6GHz).The cylindrical dielectric resonator with radius r=10mm and height h=10mm. the CDRA material is alumina ceramic with a permittivity of εDRA is 9.9 and the resonant frequency is fr=4GHz. The substrate will be is Rogers RT 5880 with εr=2.2 and tan⸹=0.0009, the thickness is 1.52mm. The CDRA is excited about the microstrip line. so the cdra is coupled electromagnetically by this microstrip line and below the substrate, we have a ground plane with annealed alumina so we have no radiation or low below the substrate all the radiation is top of the CDRA. The proposed antenna is simulated using CST microwave studio software and the designed antenna will operate for 5G applications and we can consider massive MIMO antenna array configurations. This design analyses the parameters of CDRA.

In this paper, a microstrip-fed U-shaped dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) is simulated, designed, and fabricated. This antenna, in its simple configuration, operates from 5.45 to 10.8 GHz. To enhance its impedance bandwidth, the ground plane is first modified, which leads to an extended bandwidth from 4 to 10.8 GHz. Then by inserting a rectangular metallic patch inside the U-shaped DRA, the bandwidth is increased more to achieve an operating band from 2.65 to 10.9 GHz. To validate these results, an experimental antenna prototype is fabricated and measured. The obtained measurement results show that the proposed antenna can provide an ultra-wide bandwidth and a symmetric bidirectional radiation patterns. With these features, the proposed antenna is suitable for ultra-wideband applications.

The antenna consisting of two rectangular dielectric resonator elements, both resonators are fed by microstrip feed line is etched on FR4 substrate.
