EasyChair Preprint 5240

Abstract

Design of Wearable Textile Antenna for Biomedical WBAN (2.36-2.45GHz) application using ISM band. In this paper, a low-profile Wearable microstrip patch antenna is designed and suggested for constant observation of human vital signs such as blood pressure, pulse rate and body temperature using Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) technology. In our work, prototype antennas were built using natural rubber, denim and cotton with different carbon filter substances. The developed antenna has been simulated tested and compared for various performance of parameters like Reflection coefficient, Gain, Directivity, VSWR, Efficiency and Bandwidth. The proposed micro-strip patch antenna is designed at 2.45GHz frequency in order to obtain better return loss, VSWR, Grain and low value of Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) as compared to other existing wearable antenna of different substrates. CST Studio suite is used to design and simulate the proposed antenna. This paper discloses the performance analysis of the wearable textile microstrip patch antenna using different substrates in WBAN application by creating an impact on intensifying healthcare provisions.
