Abstract
In the presented paper a novel application of microstrip circular patch antenna with three rings on patch is proposed. The novel application of this antenna is to use white space TV (470MHz to 806MHz) band which is totally free as TV communication has been moved from TV band to C-band and Ku-band (satellite TV). The proposed antenna can work in a complete TV band (420MHz to 810MHz). The bandwidth of a circular microstrip patch antenna with the infinite ground plane is 11MHz. To enhance the bandwidth of the antenna infinite ground plane is converted into a finite ground plane. To further enhance the bandwidth three circular rings are etched from the patch. The proposed antenna can use white space TV band frequency with a gain of 1.3dBi and a radiation efficiency of 92 percent.
