Dielectric resonator antennas(DRAs) offer some attractive characteristics over conventional microstrip antennas, such as small size, low profile, light weight, ease of excitation, and high radiation efficiency at higher frequency bands. Since DRAs attract more and more attention, theoretical analysis have been insufficient to simulate various configurations of dielectric resonator antennas.
Therefore some researchers introduce numerical methods to analyze DRAs, such as Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method, Method of Moment (MoM), Finite Element Method (FEM). In this author, we apply two kinds of methods, including FDTD and MoM, to analysis DRA and compare the results applied these two methods. Then we simulate various configurations of dielectric resonator antennas using FDTD method.
About designing the DRA construction, in this author we applied an equivalent approach to solve approximate dimensions of DRAs, and then we obtain accurate dimensions using FDTD method. In this author¡Aa DRA work at 5.8GHz have been proposed, then we using a L-shaped patch to increase impedance bandwidth. Above all, we hope to built a fast and accurate procedure to solve the resonant frequency, bandwidth, and far field pattern of DRAs. And to supply the engineer to reduce time consume in design DRAs.
