Popis: In this manuscript, a novel hybrid dielectric resonator antenna for ultra wideband (UWB) applications is designed, and single band notched performance is proposed. The circle radiating patch is printed on the FR4 substrate of 1.64 mm thickness and loss tangent tan δ =0.02, and is fed by the coplanar waveguide. The size of the UWB antenna was minimised to 50-40 mm2. The cylindrical dielectric resonator (CDR) was used to broaden the bandwidth and achieve an impedance bandwidth of more than 113%, covering a frequency range of 3.3 to more than 12GHz. WIMAX band notched characteristics of the antenna to reject (3.2-3.8GHz) were realised by etching a U-shaped slot in the radiating patch. The centre notch frequency can be adjusted from 3.4 to 4.5 GHz by changing the position of the CDR. The band notched characteristics, VSWR, and radiation patterns were studied using the CST microwave simulator and confirmed with the frequency domain ANSOFT high frequency structure simulator (HFSS).
