摘要: A flexible microstrip antenna printed on a Kapton Polymide substrate, excited by CPW feed line, and operated in S-band at 3.5GHz, is successfully validated. Unlike previous antennas, this structure offers very thin thickness (0.16mm) with overall dimensions of 36×25 mm2 that assure an easy integration into clothes wireless body area network (WBAN) systems. Modeling performance evaluation the proposed term return loss, voltage standing wave ratio, radiation pattern, current distribution have been carried out using CST-MW STUDIO Software.
