Abstract

Dielectric resonators (DR´s) are widely used in telecommunication systems. A method is proposed here to find the resonant frequency and field distribution in a substrate-mounted DR structure. The field of a dielectric rod has been decomposed into a combination of guided modes with unknown coefficients and an unknown continuous spectrum of radiation field. The unknowns are then obtained by applying two generalized impedance boundary conditions (GIBC´s) representing the substrate and air layers at the top and bottom of the DR. This leads to the calculation of the total (guided+radiation) field as well as the resonant frequency of the structure
