| Abstract | A new design of circular polarized elliptical dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) with single feed for handheld radio frequency identification (RFID) reader is presented. The elliptical dielectric resonator antenna with an aspect ratio of 1.5 is used. This design has achieved 66.7 MHz impedance bandwidth (for S11 < –10 dB) by using material with dielectric constant material (εr = 12) in conjunction with coaxial probe feed in free space. The DRA models are simulated using two different numerical techniques, the finite element method and the finite integral technique. The numerical results of the two different computational methods approache are investigated and compared. The results are in good agreement within the desired frequency band, 5.65 GHz – 5.95 GHz. A model for a handheld RFID reader device including the elliptical DRA in the presence of human hand models is, also, investigated. The return loss is <10 dB over the frequency range of 5.49– 6.967 GHz resulting in frequency bandwidth of 1.47 GHz. A high front to back ratio and gain of 5.726dBi are obtained. |
