Abstract
In this paper, the equivalent circuit model of designed circular slotted microstrip patch antenna has been proposed using parallel resonance phenomenon. The proposed model is composed of eight series connected parallel LCR circuits. It has been observed that the response of microstrip patch antenna can be analyzed using resistor, inductor and capacitor. The response (return loss S11) of microstrip patch antenna can be equivalently modelled by using parallel resonant circuit. The circuit modelling has been done using RF toolbox of MATLAB. The comparative study and effect of adding shunt LCR circuits has been studied and analyzed.
