A probe-fed hemispherical dielectric resonator antenna with an airgap of hemispherical shape between the dielectric and the ground plane is investigated theoretically by using a Green's function formulation. Input impedance of the efficiently radiating mode of TE/sub 111/ is calculated and analyzed. It is found that, with the presence of the airgap, the antenna bandwidth, obtained from the 3-dB impedance bandwidth, can be considerably enhanced. This study provides a new design for bandwidth enhancement of the dielectric resonator antenna.>
