| Abstract | Dielectric resonator antennas (DRAs) excited by tall microstrip transmission lines (TMLs) are investigated. Two different TML–DRA structures are proposed and the impact of TML parameters on the antenna performance is studied when low-loss and lossy substrates are used. To validate the effectiveness of this approach, a set of prototype antennas was fabricated, measured and compared with simulation results. A good agreement is obtained. It is found that by adjusting TML parameters, excellent impedance matching and coupling to low-permittivity DRAs are achieved even on high-permittivity substrates. The impedance bandwidth of a single-mode simple-shape rectangular DRA with ɛ rd = 9 can be as high as 25%. The radiation efficiency of the antenna on extremely lossy substrates is significantly improved and based on the measured results over 80% efficiency with a gain ranging from 4.2 to 5.5 dBi along the impedance bandwidth can be expected. Since TML is a low-loss transmission line, the DRA is a low-loss radiator and low-permittivity DRAs can be well matched by TML, the TML–DRA forms an excellent wideband antenna system with high radiation efficiency. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
