Abstract

In response to increasing demand for compact efficient antennas, various cylindrical geometries of dielectric resonator antennas (DRAs) are investigated. These DRA geometries offer significant reduction in volume, making them potential candidates for use in compact applications such as mobile communication handsets. Approximate theory of PMC walls developed for producing resonant radiation frequency of different DRA geometries, presents good agreement with available experimental results. Volume minimization for compact DRA designs is also discussed and a design is proposed for a mobile telephone handset suitable for the GSM900 system.
