In this paper, we introduce the concept of the circular complex $q$-rung orthopair fuzzy set (CC$q$-ROFS) as a novel generalization that unifies the existing frameworks of circular complex intuitionistic fuzzy sets (CCIFSs) and complex $q$-rung orthopair fuzzy sets. If $q = 2$, the structure is referred to as a circular complex Pythagorean fuzzy set, and if $q = 3$, it is called a circular complex Fermatean fuzzy set. The proposed approach extends the Gaussian-based framework to the CC$q$-ROFSs, aiming to achieve a smoother and statistically meaningful representation of uncertainty. Within this setting, new Gaussian-based aggregation operators for CC$q$-ROFSs are constructed by employing the Gaussian triangular norm and conorm. Furthermore, Gaussian-weighted arithmetic and Gaussian-weighted geometric aggregation operators are formulated to enable consistent integration of membership and non-membership information for fuzzy modeling and decision-making.
