摘要
A probe-fed hemispherical dielectric resonator antenna with a dielectric coating is investigated rigorously by using a Green's function formulation. Numerical results for the input impedance at TE111 mode are calculated. It is found that, by coating the dielectric resonator antenna with a dielectric material having a relative permittivity about half that of the dielectric resonator antenna, the impedance bandwidth of the antenna can be significantly improved. This dielectric coating here serves as a transition region between the wave inside the dielectric resonator antenna and the free-space wave, and thus can increase the impedance bandwidth of the antenna. A broadband dielectric resonator antenna can thus be obtained. (C) 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
