Reconfigurable micro-strip patch antenna with a U-slot is proposed for wearable fabric applications. Fabric substrate is used for the proposed antenna for manufactured and designed to steer the beam directions at the operation frequency of 7. 0 GHz. For design the proposed antenna the U-shaped slot and a proximity-coupled feeding technique are applied. By configuring two artificial switches bet...

In this paper, stainless steel core yarn was selected as a conductive yarn to produce conductive fabrics. The electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of twill and some diced woven fabrics with different metal densities were measured by free space measurement technique at horizontal polarization of the antenna. It was found that woven fabric samples shielded well in high frequency band, namely i...

In wild birds implanted intracoelomically with radio transmitters, a synthetic fabric collar placed around the base of a percutaneous antenna is believed to function as a barrier to contamination of the coelom. We examined 13 fabric collars recovered from percutaneous antennas of radio transmitters implanted intracoelomically in harlequin ducks (Histrionicus histrionicus) 12 months earlier. Bot...

This paper addresses the design and development of HiperLAN antennas meeting the IEEE 802.11a standards for wearable applications. Five such antennas are investigated for their performance characteristics, out of which three are conventional copper based antennas and the remaining two are fully fabric antennas. The results reveal that all the proposed antennas are suitable for HiperLAN applicat...

Received Jan 30, 2017 Revised Apr 3, 2017 Accepted Apr 28, 2017 In this paper, leaf shape textile antenna in ISM band has been chosen to study. The operating frequency of the dipole antenna is 2.45GHz. The effect of conductive threads with three different types of sewing has been analysed. The first type of sewing leaf shape dipole antenna is to stitch around itself and embroidered into a fleec...

The integration of the antenna and textile materials is very important in the army protective or data transmission clothing. In this study, a novel microstrip antenna integrated into a 3D orthogonal woven fabric was successfully designed and fabricated. This type of antenna is designed to work in wearable or conformal antenna applications. Simulation work using HFSS software was done for the de...
