Abstract

A low profile circularly polarized high directive Dielectric Resonator Antenna (DRA) is presented for X - band wireless applications. DRA is excited by microstrip aperture slot coupling which is employed on the bottom side of the substrate. Two asymmetric rectangular split rings are created adjacent to the feed line on the substrate to enhance the 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth and impedance bandwidth. Corrugated circular ring shaped single layer double sided meta superstrate is loaded on the DRA to enhance the peak gain to 11.9 dBi. The extracted lumped element model of the Superstrate unitis found to be inconcurrence with Electromagnetic (EM) simulations. The proposed geometry offers a 1.1 GHz axial ratio bandwidth with 2.6 GHz impedance bandwidth. A prototype is fabricated and experimentally verified.
