Generalized expressions for the Debye potential and the wake field potential are derived due to an axial propagation of dust grain projectiles. The dust grain projectiles are assumed to lie on sets of concentric circles propagating through the dusty plasma with a constant velocity along the z axis. Each circle carries N number of dust grain projectiles having radius r{sub l} and angular position (2{pi}m)/N. A couple of specific cases of electrostatic potential due to four and eight projectiles are studied in some detail both analytically and numerically.
