摘要: The design and manufacturing of several new textile-based rectangular-ring antennas for body area networks operating in the ISM-band (2.4 GHz?2.4835 GHz) is described. Fleece fabric applied as antenna substrate, whereas conducting plane ground are constructed based on a commercially available electro-textile called Flectron. We compare characteristics two prototypes that were assembled using different glueing techniques. influence bending investigated. proposed first circularly polarised cover bandwidth more than 190 MHz, substrate material with thickness less 3 mm. provide sufficient gain use practical wireless links. They allow direct integration into garments.
