A parametric study of textile artificial magnetic conductor with wire dipole at 2.45ghz and 5.8ghz

Textile Artificial Magnetic Conductor (AMC) with wire dipole is presented. The AMCs are made of fleece and Shieldit fabrics and were designed to have in-phase reflections at 2.45GHz and 5.8GHz. Thorough parametric studies based on AMC unit cell have been performed to obtain the optimized design. Per...

Description
Summary:Textile Artificial Magnetic Conductor (AMC) with wire dipole is presented. The AMCs are made of fleece and Shieldit fabrics and were designed to have in-phase reflections at 2.45GHz and 5.8GHz. Thorough parametric studies based on AMC unit cell have been performed to obtain the optimized design. Performance comparison between different types of environments, fabrics and arrays size were also conducted. The proposed AMC and wire dipole are designed, simulated, fabricated and tested. Results of return loss, radiation pattern and gain are presented. Results show that forward directive radiation pattern with improved gain are achieved with the introduction of the AMC at both 2.45GHz and 5.8GHz. The proposed textile AMC is suitable for body centric communication systems.
