摘要
A single-feed rectangular-ring textile antenna is proposed for wireless body area networks operating in the 2.45 GHz ISM band. The conductive parts of the planar antenna consist of FlecTron (R). whereas fleece fabric is used as non-conductive antenna substrate. This results in a highly efficient, flexible and wearable antenna to be integrated in garments. The robustness of the antenna characteristics with respect to bending is proven.
