Abstract :
A transparent ceramic (TC) material with low relative dielectric constant of 7 has been used to form a rectangular dielectric resonator antenna (RDRA) working at the frequency of 5.05GHz. The TC-RDRA is fed by using a microstrip-strip structure. The performance of such an antenna has been investigated experimentally and by simulation. The experimental and simulation results have shown a good agreement.
