Wearable Ultra Wide Band antennas for short range communications and Body Area Network applications are frequently realized using all-textile technology to foster the integration in clothes. The research effort is oriented to the use of new textile materials and advanced antenna topologies to overcome the challenging issues of textile on-body antennas. In this work we present a reconfigurable wearable UWB antenna made with denim fabric that is able to change its topology from a monopole-like to microstrip-like antenna without affecting the UWB behavior. © 2019 IEEE.

Abstract

Wearable Ultra Wide Band antennas for short range communications and Body Area Network applications are frequently realized using all-textile technology to foster the integration in clothes. The research effort is oriented to the use of new textile materials and advanced antenna topologies to overcome the challenging issues of textile on-body antennas. In this work we present a reconfigurable wearable UWB antenna made with denim fabric that is able to change its topology from a monopole-like to microstrip-like antenna without affecting the UWB behavior. © 2019 IEEE.
