Until now, the random techniques have been developed for obtaining the CP response in DRA. It is glaringly required to develop a fixed mathematical criterion for the selection of dimensions of the antenna structure. The criterion for selection of the stair-shaped slot dimensions, which is utilised for obtaining the CP response, is defined in this paper. The ranges of slot length ratios are investigated so that a wide CP bandwidth can be obtained. The antenna offers the 10-dB impedance of 58.62% (4.1 GHz - 7.5 GHz) and 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth of 40.86 per cent (4.26GHz - 6.385 GHz). ER -
