Abstract :
This letter examines in detail multiple resonance phenomenon responsible for the ultra wideband response of the hybrid monopole-dielectric resonator antenna (DRA). The physical insight gained by this investigation has lead to improved guidelines for designing the antennas for any specified frequency band. These simple guidelines are then verified using both simulated and measured data
