A body wearable antenna (BWA) is a hotly research issue for the examination. In this paper different kind of receiving antennas are displayed which are as of now accessible in writing. A BWA is a material receiving antenna, which is adaptable and comfort. At some point it isn't important that space accessible for mounting the receiving antenna is level, so radio antenna ought not to change its qualities amid twisting conditions. Save specialists for the most part work in such a domain which is disjoined by multipath, which cause the blurring of got flag. So to keep away from such kind of issue a multi energized reception apparatus may require. Besides when receiving antenna is put over the human body, because of bidirectional properties of radio antenna in reverse radiation may hurt the wearer's body. So to minimize such radiations EBG (Electromagnetic band gap) structures are utilized.

Selection Of

In recent years, the study and design of wearable antennas have been empowered given the success of Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN) for healthcare and medical purposes. This work analyses a flexible textile antenna whose performance can be optimised by the careful selection of the substrate thickness of the textile material, and by varying the antenna’s geometrical shape. After considering these parameters, several arrangements of antennas were simulated using the Computer Simulation Technology software (CST). The results of the simulations were compared to the experimental prototypes manufactured on a flexible felt material for a range of thicknesses and curvatures of the antenna substrate. Such antenna designs can be utilised in off-body communications and ISM applications.

 This paper considers the performance of a square microstrip patch antenna designed from two layers of non-flexible conducting material (copper) separated by foam or other material which is deformable and having an approximate relative permittivity, εr≈ 1. The antenna can be incorporated into smart clothing for multi band reception and transmission in Body Area Networks (BANs). An empirical technique is presented for obtaining the shape of the antenna when it has been deformed due to body movement or by applying force at two adjacent edges. The reflection coefficient, radiation pattern and surface currents of the wearable antenna under consideration are analyzed under various bending conditions. It is found that H-plane bending did not significantly affect performance of the patch. The antenna can be used in multi-band body worn wireless applications.

Wearable Antenna

A dual band wearable antenna operating on 2.6 GHz (2570-2620 MHz FDD/TDD) and 5.2 GHz (802.11a) bands for Body Area Network (BAN) application is presented. The stack substrates of Felt and ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam are used to make the structure flexible. Maximum gain of 2.75 and front to back ratio of 8.35 is achieved on industrial scientific and medical (ISM) band. Additional bandwidth enhancement has been achieved by creating slots on partial ground plane. The calculated specific absorption rate (SAR) value is 1.33 W/kg for 1 g of body tissue. Simulated and measured results are presented for the proposed structure.
