Abstract
—A dual-polarized dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) is investigated and discussed. The probe and microstrip feed line excite linear polarization (LP) and broadside circular polarization (CP), respectively. These different radiation patterns are obtained 43 % overlapping bandwidth. The measured results show that the antenna provides 43 % bandwidth, excited by probe feed line that produces linearly polarized and 74 % impedance bandwidth using microstrip feed line with the 18 % circularly polarized. The total overlapping bandwidth is 43 % starting from 8.65 GHz to 13.44 GHz. The antenna gain is between 3.4 and 5.2 dBi for linear polarized and between 2.8 and 5.1 dBi for circularly polarized patterns in the whole covered range.
