Abstract
The radiation from a two-element endfire dielectric resonator antenna array has been experimentally investigated and compared with theoretic al formulations. The measured gain of the array is 4.6, which is 35% h igher than the gain of a single element DRA. The measured impedance ba ndwidth is 11.4%, which is 0.7% lower than the bandwidth of the single element DRA. Good agreement has been observed between the predicted a nd measured results.
