A review of wearable antenna (2009, background): “A textile-based antenna in [10] was designed to provide a wireless short range communication in body and personal area network.”
Design of a 2.45 GHz rectenna for electromagnetic (EM) energy scavenging (2010, background): “The aperture coupled feeding structure makes the design suitable for implementation on flexible or textile based substrates [ 7 ].”
Design of a Broadband All-Textile Slotted PIFA (2012, background): “The presence of a user’s body alters the , introduces shift and an unavoidable efficiency loss, due to its high value [6].”
Embroidery and related manufacturing techniques for wearable antennas: Challenges and opportunities (2014, methodology): “In [31] an aperture coupled patch antenna using two different textiles (fleece and felt) for the substrates was proposed, designed and manufactured.”
A Textile Antenna for Off-Body Communication Integrated Into Protective Clothing for Firefighters (2009, background): “Due to their shape, low profile, and compactness, planar antennas of the microstrip patch type have proven to be best suited for integration into garments [4], [7], [8].”
Stability and Efficiency of Screen-Printed Wearable and Washable Antennas (2012, background): “Planar microstrip patch antennas [3], made of nonconductive textile materials, used as substrates, and electrotextiles, used as conductive layers, are of particular interest because they are easy to manufacture, lightweight, flexible, and conformable to the wearer.”
On-Body Characterization of Dual-Band All-Textile PIFA (2012, unknown): “Even though it might be slightly thicker than uni-layered microstrip types, recent investigations in [3, 13, 15] have used substrates of at least 3 mm in thickness to realize relatively narrowband textile antennas.”
