Dielectric plate antenna
Abstract
A dielectric plate antenna with high gain and suitable for microwave integrated circuits has been designed. The antenna utilizes a direct coupled stripline half-wave dipole as an exciter. Performance evaluation indicates that the antenna is equivalent to a conventional rod antenna and that it may be used as a small high-gain antenna. An analysis of the radiation mechanism shows good agreement with measured data.
