Abstract

A compact CPW fed textile antenna is proposed for wireless body area network (WBAN) applications. It consists of rectangular shaped radiating patch with a stair case and ground plane and these two parameters have more impact on impedance bandwidth. The antenna is designed using the jean fabric material with size of 21 × 16 ×1 mm3and fabricated. The antenna has covered the desired UWB 3.1 - 10.6 GHz effectively. In addition, it has better radiation characteristics in both E-plane and H-plane. Antenna parametric study is done for various antenna parameters. It can be used for telemedicine and military applications.
