Design of Dual Band Dielectric Resonator Antenna with Serpentine Slot for WBAN Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
To achieve dual frequency operation for wireless body area network (WBAN) applications, a hybrid dual-band dielectric resonator antenna with serpentine slot fed by a microstrip line is proposed. The proposed antenna structure consists of cylindrical dielectric resonator and serpentine slot resonator. The serpentine slot is etched on the ground plane of the dielectric resonator antenna (DRA). By adjusting the structure parameters, the cylindrical dielectric resonator operates at higher band (2.4 GHz) and serpentine slot operates at lower band (403 MHz), both resonators are radiating with two different radiation patterns. The proposed antenna structure is suitable for WBAN applications.

Dielectric Resonator Antennas (DRAs) have received increased interest in recent years for their potential applications in microwave and millimeter wave communication systems. DRAs are normally used with the support of a ground plane. The radiation and impedance properties therefore depend not only on their physical dimensions and dielectric properties, but also on the size of the ground plane. ...
