THREE ELEMENT DUAL SEGMENT TRIANGULAR DIELECTRIC RESONATOR ANTENNA FOR X-BAND APPLICATIONS

A wideband dual segment three element triangular dielec- tric resonator antenna (TDRA) has been proposed for applications in X-band. Proposed antenna has been fabricated and tested. The simu- lation study of the antenna is carried out using Ansoft HFSS simulation software. The simulation results for input characteristics and radiation patterns of the proposed antenna are compared with corresponding ex- perimental results at the resonant frequency. The simulation results are in agreement with the measurement results. The return loss-frequency characteristics of the proposed antenna are also compared with those of single element, and three element TDRAs.
