Dielectric Resonator Antennas: Theory, Design, and Applications (Wiley Series in Microwave and Optical Engineering)

Dielectric resonator antennas (DRA) are attractive as an alternative to microstrip antennas because of their small size and large bandwidth. Written by a recognized leader in the field, Dielectric Resonator Antennas describes recent dielectric resonator antennas which have the potential to provide significant advantages in terms of size reduction, improved bandwidth, higher power handling capacity, and increased efficiency compared with microstrip antennas. Featuring design methods, practical applications, and design curves for the circular disc dielectric resonator, the book is a valuable resource for practitioners, graduate students, and antenna designers.
