What is a Dielectric Resonator Antenna? By: Peter McNeil Dielectric Resonator Antennas (DRAs) are antennas formed from resonant dielectric radiators fed by a conductor carrying an RF signal. In this way, DRAs convert unguided waves transmitted by conductors to guided waves that are then emitted from the dielectric structure. As DRAs transmit through a dielectric...
