Dielectric Patch Antenna

Description

A Dielectric Patch Antenna is a type of antenna that uses a block of dielectric material as the radiating element instead of a metal patch. It consists of a dielectric resonator placed above a ground plane. The antenna operates by exciting electromagnetic modes within the dielectric material, which then radiate into free space. The high dielectric constant of the material allows the antenna to be compact while maintaining effective radiation. This type of antenna is commonly used in applications like GPS, satellite communication, and other high-frequency wireless systems due to its small size, high efficiency, and stability.
