Abstract :
This paper examines the use of dielectric resonator antennas (DRAs) as alternative radiators in personal communication system (PCS), covering frequencies from the L-band to the Ka-band (1 to 40 GHz), applications. The advantages and benefits of DRAs over conventional antennas are discussed and several examples are described
