Abstract

In modern technology, reduction in size and complexity of the antenna are the primary objective of recent research. This reduced size antenna is the boon in medical applications. This paper proposes monopole antenna which constitutes a simple structure and light-weight with a use of textile substrate. The prototype designed in this paper will be used for Body Centric Wireless Communications operating in 2.45 GHz Industrial, Scientific and Medical band. Return loss of − 10 dB and wide bandwidth against the conventional monopole antenna is achieved in the proposed system. Besides, a satisfactory gain characteristic has been obtained using wearable textile monopole antenna when it is compared to the conventional monopole antenna.
