Abstract
In this work, a dual-band, compact, eight-mode substrate-integrated waveguide (EMSIW) antenna is presented for 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) applications. The electrical size of the proposed antenna is reduced by 1/8th compared to a conventional rectangular SIW cavity resonator by using the EMSIW approach. With the eight-mode concept, the dominant mode is preserved at the same frequency while achieving a large reduction in antenna size. The dominant mode’s resonance frequency is independently adjusted to 2.4 GHz, and a higher-order mode operates at 5.8 GHz. When both slots are loaded in an EMSIW, the radiation pattern at 5.8 GHz is enhanced in the broadside direction.The antenna’s on-body performance is validated using a biological phantom model at 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz, demonstrating lower sensitivity. The antenna’s simulated efficiency and measured gain in free space are 5.9 dBi and 60% and 3.8 dBi and 60%, respectively. The simulated Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) values are within acceptable limits for on-body WBAN applications, attributed to the predominantly unidirectional radiation from the antenna resulting in low SAR values. Additionally, the measurement results align well with the simulation outcomes.

期刊介绍:
IEEE Access® is a multidisciplinary, open access (OA), applications-oriented, all-electronic archival journal that continuously presents the results of original research or development across all of IEEE''s fields of interest.
IEEE Access will publish articles that are of high interest to readers, original, technically correct, and clearly presented. Supported by author publication charges (APC), its hallmarks are a rapid peer review and publication process with open access to all readers. Unlike IEEE''s traditional Transactions or Journals, reviews are "binary", in that reviewers will either Accept or Reject an article in the form it is submitted in order to achieve rapid turnaround. Especially encouraged are submissions on:
Multidisciplinary topics, or applications-oriented articles and negative results that do not fit within the scope of IEEE''s traditional journals.
Practical articles discussing new experiments or measurement techniques, interesting solutions to engineering.
Development of new or improved fabrication or manufacturing techniques.
Reviews or survey articles of new or evolving fields oriented to assist others in understanding the new area.
