To address the issues of the inconvenient fabrication and integration for millimeter-wave (MMW) dielectric resonator antennas (DRAs), a new configuration is proposed. First, a dielectric resonator with artificial electromagnetic boundaries is implemented by introducing the electromagnetic band-gap s...
