A new type of planar subarray composed of rectangular dielectric resonators fed by a microstrip‐line / aperture combination has been devised and investigated. Good performance has been achieved, including a 10‐dB impedance bandwidth of 18% and excellent radiation patterns. Results for impedance bandwidth, radiation patterns, and mutual coupling effects are presented. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
