In this paper, a tri-band antenna for Ku-band applications is presented. This application requires a high data rate to operate for an antenna in Ku-band. The desire of having more compact made the prime choice for an antenna as a planar antenna. The features anticipate from an antenna are applications specific. The design of the proposed antenna consists of a truncated E-shaped slot, eight rectangular slots, and eight defected ground structure slots. The three frequency bands of 12.383 - 13.227 GHz, 13.643 - 14.085 GHz, 17.084 - 18.075 GHz are achieved. The simulated results of the proposed antenna are found to acceptable for gain, efficiency, and radiation pattern to ensure the suitability of the proposed antenna for Ku band applications. Furthermore, the design of the proposed antenna can be used as an element to achieve high gain in both transmission and reception modes of fixed satellite service and direct broadcast service. This paper summarizes the design, the parametric analysis and demonstrates the simulation results of the prototype antenna
