1. A dielectric resonator antenna system comprising:

  • a ground plane;

    a feed structure;

    an array of dielectric resonator elements electrically coupled to the feed structure, each dielectric element having a relatively high permittivity;

    a radome close to or in contact with the array of dielectric resonator elements;

    an object mounting apparatus for mounting the antenna system on the object; and

    a beam shaping and steering controller, the beam shaping and steering controller controlling the feed structure to thereby control excitation phases of the dielectric resonator elements.
