Two potential materials are included for examination - conductive copper tape and ShieldIt conductive textile. Both are designed and simulated to achieve a satisfactory resonance at the Very High Frequency (VHF) band for Land Mobile Radio (LMR) application through proper structure segmentation and iteration. Optimization concludes that the antenna is suitably fed using an L-shaped folded ground plane, with a Minkowski radiator of the third iteration (n3). The better performing material, i.e conductive copper tape, is used to fabricate an antenna. It is observed through measurements that the wearable antenna reaches a gain of larger than 0 dB and an efficiency of 48 %, with a size of less than 0.5 m. 2012-08-03T05:15:17Z 2012-08-03T05:15:17Z 2011-04-10 Working Paper p. 521-524 978-888202074-3 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?reload=true&arnumber=5782481&contentType=Conference+Publications http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/20563 en Proceedings of the 5th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EUCAP) 2011 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) |
