Abstract

In accordance with one or more embodiments, an antenna system includes a dielectric antenna having a feedpoint and an aperture. A fractal patch antenna is configured to receive a signal via a feedline and to generate an electromagnetic wave in response to the signal. A waveguide is configured to couple the electromagnetic wave to the feedpoint, wherein the dielectric antenna is configured to radiate a free space wireless signal from the aperture in response to the electromagnetic wave.
