The antenna is designed on a Taconic TLT-8 substrate with dimensions of 0.563mm x 0.563mm x 4.948mm. The advantages of this antenna include compactness, low loss characteristics, and ultra-wide bandwidth. The design considerations for sub-THz dielectric antennas, specifically addressing substrate selection and dielectric properties, geometric design parameters, feeding techniques, and polarization considerations. These design considerations have a significant impact on the performance and radiation characteristics of the antenna. The results obtained clearly show that the designed antenna meets all the requirements over the entire frequency band. Dielectric Antenna sub-THz rod antenna circular tapered.
