Abstract

An antenna. The antenna includes a first dielectric antenna rod having a first dielectric constant. The first dielectric antenna rod is coupled to a first frequency transmission source for propagating first frequency band radiation from the first dielectric antenna rod into a medium having a medium dielectric constant. A second dielectric antenna rod is provided having a second dielectric constant. The second dielectric antenna rod is coupled to a second frequency transmission source for propagating second frequency band radiation from the second dielectric antenna rod into the medium. The first dielectric antenna rod is coaxially mounted within the second dielectric antenna rod. The first dielectric constant is greater than the second dielectric constant. The second dielectric constant is greater than the medium dielectric constant.
