Thermally tunable slot-coupled dielectric resonator antenna

A thermally tunable slot-coupled dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) has been designed and prepared by placing a thermosensitive ceramic resonator onto the slot. Typical magnetic resonance occurs in the resonator, which is closely related to its dielectric constant. Because the dielectric constant of...
