A metallic WBAN dielectric resonator antenna for ISM band applications

Abstract

A compact cylindrical dielectric resonator antenna (CDRA) for Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) applications is proposed in this article. The simple microstrip feeding system can be used to stimulate a certain CDRA. An implemented dielectric resonator delivers the functionalities for an efficient radiator with the feeding specifications. The permitted band can be accumulated by varying the design specifications. The standardized design comprises the resonator to attain frequency of 2.4 GHz. The ISM band is used in wireless body area networks (WBAN) technology for transmission of real time traffic such as video and information to monitor the health conditions. A U-shaped metal strip is located over the dielectric resonator material in order to miniaturize the size and enhance the resonator appearance. The consequences on antenna appearance for various radio wire specifications are explored. The intended model has competitive prices, lower volumes, and adequate containment. The evaluation of antenna illustrates the optimal bandwidth, coefficient of reflection (
