Ambiguous Sentence

edit

Just arrived at the page to learn about DRAs; I was a bit confused by: "a block of ceramic material of various shapes, the dielectric resonator, mounted on a metal surface, a ground plane." -- is the 'block of ceramic material of various shapes' the dielectric resonator, or is that another thing?

Correction to Statement

edit

It is incorrect to say that there is no loss in a DRA. There is the dissipation factor or loss tangent of the material. In addition, the complex permittivity is dependent upon conductivity which changes with frequency. See, Advanced Engineering Electromagnetics by Balanis, [1]
