  • Abstract
    A switchable cylindrical dielectric resonator antenna operating in four different radiation modes is reported. Two linear polarised, one circular polarised, and a nonradiating mode are implemented. The experimental results of the resonant frequency, boresight axial ratio, gain, unloaded Q-factor, impedance bandwidth and radiation efficiency are presented for the operating modes and compared with the theoretical values
