A dielectric antenna is provided which is capable of setting the radiation of electromagnetic waves at a desired angle. The dielectric antenna has a nonradiative dielectric guide (an NRD guide) of a construction in which a dielectric strip is sandwiched between a first planar conductor and a second planar conductor. A dielectric resonator is disposed between the first planar conductor and the second planar conductor along the extension line of the dielectric strip, and a plurality of slots are disposed in the second planar conductor above the dielectric resonator and symmetrically with respect to the dielectric resonator.

Why it's free to use
- Filed May 21, 1996 and granted August 10, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended May 21, 2016.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 21, 2018.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
