“Performance Measure of Microstrip Antenna for Wearable Application” (original) (raw)

Abstract

Modern communication systems are driven by the concept of being connected anywhere and at any time. Fuelled by the idea of a body-centric approach to modern communication technology, many research projects have been initiated to integrate antennas and radio frequency (RF) systems into clothes with regard to size reduction and cost effectiveness; so that the wearer may not notice the existence of these subsystems. Integrating antennas into fabrics is a potential way for facilitating many applications, such as health monitoring of patients, fire-fighting, rescue work, and space and military personal communications.The antenna designed for these applications should be flexible, lightweight and mechanically robust. The antenna structure is simple and looks like an adhesive bandage, and can be placed on human tissue.This paper presents a novel planar, via-free, printed antenna which looks like an adhesive bandage is designed on RT Duroid 5880 dielectric substrate. Later in order to desig...
