Wearable antennas are best designed with a body perturbation in place and therefore need to be tuned on the body. However for a number of reasons humans are far from uniform in their tissue proportion. Fat, thin, tall and short are important however age, race and sex may also be important because of changes to the diffractive properties of the skins surface. The use of consistent human body phantoms...
In this paper, we present an antenna design for multiband applications which can cover the GSM 900 (890-960 MHz), DCS (1710- 1880 MHz) and PCS(1850-1990 MHz), UMTS (1920- 2170 MHz), and WLAN2.4 GHz (2400-2484 MHz) frequency bands. A prototype is built and measured. Results of return loss, radiation patterns, and efficiency are given. The antenna is small, cheap to manufacture, has a low profile and...
This paper presents a novel flexible wearable multi-band printed monopole antenna on a neoprene substrate. Bands covered are GSM 900 (890-960 MHz), DCS (1710- 1880 MHz), PCS (1850-1990 MHz), UMTS (1920-2170 MHz) and WLAN 2.4 GHz (2400-2484 MHz) bands. The antenna is optimised for performance on the body.
This paper proposes a flexible wearable ultra-wideband antenna suitable for 802.15.3a WPAN applications. The design contains a notch at 5.2 GHz for HIPERLAN compatibility. A novel neoprenecopy substrate is introduced in this paper. Measured results are included for "Antenna on skin" and "Antenna on a hand glove" for return loss and far-field patterns.
This paper proposes a flexible wearable ultra-wideband antenna suitable for 802.15.3a WPAN applications. The design incorporates a notch at 5 GHz for providing WLAN compatibility. The effects of antenna shape and the loss properties of the substrate on the resonant performance are discussed with reference to the notch band. A novel neoprenecopy substrate is characterised in this paper. Measured results...
