  • Abstract
    A microstripline fed circular sector dielectric resonator antenna is investigated. A 180° sector of a cylindrical DR on a ground plane has been used for the study. The proposed configuration offers an increase in bandwidth (24%) with broadside radiation pattern. In addition, the configuration offers simple feed structure, compact size and thus easy integration with handheld communication equipment.
