Abstract— The circular ring with rectangular patch antenna
(CRRPA) has designed for air borne radar applications at
27.7GHz frequency. On the substrate, circular ring with
rectangular patch has loaded for obtain the wide band frequency
range is 21GHz-31.8GHz.On the ground plane of substrate small
rectangular slot has loaded to enhance the gain. The results are
presented and return loss is obtained -36.5dB, gain is 7.40dB.
2.2 with tangent loss 0.002. The top layer of substrate is
circular ring patch antenna and bottom of the layer is slotted.
The geometry of substrate is shown in table 1. Two ports are
applied to feed lines with input impedance 50Ω. The two ports
are used to noise suppression in wide band and reduction of
surface waves.

Keywords— Circular ring, rectangular patch antenna, ring

slot, radar applications.

I. INTRODUCTION
The microstrip antennas has demand in communication and
radar systems due to low cost, easy to design, and supports
both circular and linear polarizations, used in ultra-wide band
(UWB) applications. The defected ground structure (DGS) is
derived from the photonic band gap structure (PBGs) and used
for improve wide bandwidth and gain of circular ring patch
antenna.
In [1-5], the researchers has reported on circular ring patch
antenna with different defected ground planes for the GPS,
GNSS, Wi-Fi applications. The pair of arc shaped slot patch
with circular disc on ground plane, which works at 1.575GHZ
and 2.4GHZ, has been reported [1]. The circular patch used
for triple band and C band applications [4, 6]. Dual band for
stacked patch antenna with four feeding probes [3],double
layer EBG structure proposed, used to high speed wireless Fig.1. (a) Overview of circular slot antenna (b) single slot
networks and GPS and Wi-Fi applications [1, 7]. The aperture

applications. To enhance the bandwidth an annular ring slot Dimensions of the proposed circular slot antenna
[11] and with shorting vias on center-fed circular patch
antenna is considered. Parameter Value (mm)
In this paper, the analysis has been carried out for circular ring

III. SIMULATION RESULTS
The circular ring with single slot has return loss (S11) is -
Fig. 2 Return loss vs frequency of circular ring patch antenna
36.7dB at frequency 27.7GHz shown in Fig.2. The circular
ring has wide bandwidth 10.8GHz (21GHz-31.8GHz).The
return loss of circular ring increase when number of slots are
increase in ground surface.
The gain of CRRPA with single slot has 7.40dB is shown in
Fig.3. The gain of CRRPA has increases, when number of
slots are etched in the ground surface.

CONCLUSION
It is evident from the results, the proposed antenna has gain is
7.4dB, resonant operating frequency is 27.5GHz, and
wideband width is 10.8GHz.This circular ring with rectangular
patch antenna is very much useful at airborne radar
applications. The radiation patterns of E plane and H plane
