In this work, new structures of circular microstrip antenna based on slots are designed and simulated to operate with triple band applications. These slots are annular ring and rectangular shapes in different sizes. The annular ring slot is etched inside the circular patch while the other two rectangular slots are etched on the circular patch edge. The suggested antennas are simulated using version 13 of Ansoft High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS). The various parameters such as input impedance, reflection coefficient, gain, radiation patterns and surface currents were investigated. The present results observed that the optimum antenna designed is resonating at three frequencies 2.695, 5.799 and 8.323 GHz. Also, the bandwidths of simulated reflection coefficients at -10 dB are 106, 204 and 371 MHz which are identical with the S-, C- and X-bands frequencies, respectively. Therefore, the optimum antenna designed can be used in the space saving applications in addition to its important role in variety applications at these three frequency bands.

In this study, new structures of circular microstrip antennas, which operating in X-band frequency using etched slots on the patch radiating, are designed and simulated. These slots are rectangular and crescent shapes in different sizes. The proposed structures are fed by a coaxial line feed. The antennas designed are simulated and studied in order to obtain the optimum performance of the proposed antenna using Ansoft High Frequency Structure Simulator. The simulated results were discussed in terms of reflection coefficient, input impedance, gain, radiation patterns and surface currents. It is found that the optimum antenna design has resonance frequency 9.346 GHz with a bandwidth of reflection coefficient of 705 MHz, which is required for X-band applications. Therefore, this optimum designed is helpful for many applications in the system of modern wireless communication.
