Abstract :
Having gained insights into the operation of a single band dielectric resonator antenna working at 2.4 GHz, a dual-band dielectric resonator antenna is proposed to operate at both 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz for IEEE802.11a/b/g applications, based on a novel feeding method. Characteristics of the prototype antennas are assessed using both finite integration technique simulation and experimental measurement.
