Abstract
Planar inverted-F antennas (PIFAs) made of woven conductive textiles and of patterns embroidered with conductive threads are investigated. The influence of conductive thread density on antenna properties is considered in both cases. The effect of lockstitch on antenna resonant frequency is quantified. A metallic button is proposed as the transition between textile antennas and classical circuits. A full-textile prototype of a PIFA is designed and shown to operate properly in the ISM 2.4 band.
