            Abstract : 
In this paper, an ultra-wideband dielectric resonator antenna is proposed for wireless communication device applications. The antenna can provide the monopole-like radiation pattern and the mushroom-like radiation pattern in the operation band from 3.9 to 12.2 GHz (VSWR≤2) through the in-phase feed and the out-phase feed of two input ports, respectively.
