Abstract :
The end-fire TE221 mode of a hemispherical dielectric resonator (DR) antenna fed by a microstripline through an aperture on the ground plane is investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The magnetic field Green function is presented for the evaluation of the return loss. The effects of slot position, slot length and slot width on the return loss are studied and discussed.
