Abstract
This paper explains the basic characteristics of dielectric resonator antennas (DRAs), with emphasis on the effect of the form factor on their resonance (operating) frequencies. It is followed by discussions on their recent developments in higher order mode, circularly polarized, dual function, and transparent designs over the last few years. The idea of using glass DRAs as decoration antennas is proposed and demonstrated for the first time.
