Abstract: This paper demonstrates the design and performance analysis of circular patch antenna in the UWB frequency range (3.1-10.6GHz) using coaxial line feeding. The operating frequency is chosen to be at 3.3GHz which makes it perfectly fit for biomedical applications, especially in Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN). Several parameter calculations and performance measurements of this antenna have been computed using CST MW studio suite. The antenna is designed using a substrate of ARLON AD250 with a dielectric constant of 2.5 and Copper is used as patch material. Performance of the antenna is evaluated by measuring centre frequency, VSWR, return loss, radiation pattern, directivity, gain and total efficiency.
