Abstract

This paper proposes a multi-band composite wearable antenna for wireless communication, which uses a monopole structure as the radiating body and achieves multi-band characteristics through slit-loading and multi-branching methods. A polymer composite substrate with high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss was prepared using in situ polymerization, and the optimal dielectric constant and loss angle tangent were obtained by controlling the coating ratio of melamine formaldehyde resin to carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and the filler doping rate to achieve miniaturization of the antenna. Comparative experimental results show that the obtained composites have high flexibility and good dielectric properties. The antenna operates in the frequency bands of 2.21–2.52 GHz, 3.07–3.87 GHz, and 4.36–6.03 GHz, which cover the frequency bands of WLAN and WiMAX and 5G applications. The antenna was fabricated and tested, and its performance roughly matched the simulation results. Meanwhile, the antenna has passed the SAR safety test and maintained a stable performance under different curvatures, so it has potential applications in the wireless communication system.
