Abstract

A wearable antenna is meant to be a part of the clothing used for communication purposes, which includes tracking and navigation, mobile computing and public safety. In this project a microstrip patch antenna with inset feed technique for 5.8 GHz and a U-slotted MPA with co-axial feed for body area network the gain of 5.12 dB for 5.8 GHz is proposed. The antenna with dimension of 21.8 mm x 25.6 mm & 50mm x 40mm on RT-Duroid& Air Substrate is presented. The antenna is designed, simulated, optimized and analyzed using Microwave Studio CST software. The antenna performance is observed in terms of return loss, radiation pattern, Directivity and realized gain. In addition the specific absorption ratio (SAR) distributions (for Microstrip patch antenna with inset feed ) is measured for consideration in use.
