Abstract

This paper presents a lightweight and simple structure of slotted circularly polarized (CP) patch antenna using conductive textile. ShieldIt Super is used as a conductive textile and felt is used as a substrate of the antenna. The prototype is designed with a total dimension of 36 mm × 36 mm and spaced by a 3 mm thick felt fabric for Body-centric Wireless Communication (BCWC) operating in the 5.2 GHz Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) Hyper Local Area Network (LAN) band. A parametric study has been carried out in order to investigate the antenna basic characteristics, thereby enhancing the antenna performance. The proposed antenna is benchmarked against the without slot circularly polarized textile patch antenna. The measured results show that the slotted CP patch textile antenna produces better performance compared to the without the slot CP patch textile in terms of bandwidth with an acceptable 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth and gain.

用于开/关体无线电传播信道评估的5.2 GHz圆极化纺织贴片天线设计

提出了一种轻量化、结构简单的导电织物开槽圆极化贴片天线。ShieldIt Super用作导电纺织品，毛毡用作天线的衬底。该原型设计的总尺寸为36毫米× 36毫米，间隔3毫米厚的毛毡织物，用于在5.2 GHz工业、科学和医疗(ISM)超局域网(LAN)频段运行的以身体为中心的无线通信(BCWC)。为了研究天线的基本特性，从而提高天线的性能，进行了参数化研究。该天线与无槽圆极化纺织贴片天线进行了基准测试。实测结果表明，有槽CP贴片织物天线在带宽方面优于无槽CP贴片织物天线，具有可接受的3db轴比带宽和增益。
