Abstract :
The conventional dielectric waveguide model (CDWM) is used to determine the resonance frequency of a rectangular dielectric resonator operating at the TE111y mode for antenna application. A fitted closed form formula is obtained for the prediction of the resonance frequency. The results obtained are compared with the experimental results and that determined using the Marcatili (1969) and effective dielectric constant (EDC) methods. The formula provides a simple method for the estimation of the resonance frequency of the TE 111y mode with an error ranging from -9.3% to +2.05% for εr<100
