Project Summary

Wearable antennas have received interest due to the introduction of personal communications technology which provides momentum to make mobile phones smaller and simpler to carry and use. The earliest wearable antenna discovered in this review was made for a military application where designed a wearable whip antenna.

As recently the body centric communication becomes an important part of fourth generation mobile communication systems (4G). Which results an increasing interest in antennas and propagation for body communication systems, the IEEE 802.15 standardization group has been established to standardize applications for on-body, off-body or in-body communication. Body-centric communications take its place in personal area networks (PANs) and body area networks (BANs).

A wearable antenna means that it is meant to be as part of the clothing. The requirement for wearable antenna is light-weight, small and robust. In addition dual and multiband antenna operation at selected frequency bandwidths reduces the needs of many antenna elements in clothing.

So, our designed antenna will be operating on more than one specific freuency becuase we will design it for a range of freuencies, which will be quite unique.

Project Objectives

• Frequency band covering UWB (3.1 to 10.6 GHz) and greater.
• Low backward radiations.
• Wider bandwidth.
• Small size and low profile.
• Efficiency.
• Body wearable.
• Body phantom designing
• SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) analysis
• Fabrication

Project Implementation Method

In this research, first we studied different research papers and then collected different data from work previously done on our related research topics. For designing of our desired antenna we will use simulation software (CST).

Simulation software played an important part in the design of wideband wearable antenna. For this purpose, we used Microwave Studio which is a product of Computer Simulation Technology (CST). CST MICROWAVE STUDIO is a fully featured 3D software package for electromagnetic analysis and design in the high frequency range.

After completing the initial design of wideband wearable antenna, we will study and analyze Fundamental Parameters of that designed Antennas. In order to describe the performance of an antenna, we use various, sometimes interrelated, parameters.

• Radiation pattern
• Beam width
• Power
• Directivity
• Gain
• Radiation resistance

We will check the results of antenna performance after analyzing our initially designed wideband antenna. If the results we get is according to our desire then we will finalize our design. After that we will fabricate our final designed wide band wearable antenna and we will taste their performance and effects on human body.

Benefits of the Project

During the recent year wireless communication has become in more important role. One of the effective and available solutions is the Bluetooth system. As Bluetooth is aimed for short range connection for all kind of devices to improve QOS and reduce required connection time and reduce required transmission power. Similarly there are number of specialized of segments that apply body centric communication systems, such as paramedics, fire fighters,

And military. Besides, wearable antennas also can be applied for youngsters, the aged, and athletes for the purpose of monitoring.

For specific wearable antenna application we need a specific narrowband antenna,but by utilizing the results of our research we can avoid different narrow band antennas which are only funtionable for specific application. Our designed antenna will be funtionable for more than one application (Wide Band).

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

In order to utilize the results of our project, we need to fabricate our designed antenna.

We can analysis the effects of our designed wearable antenna using simulation software (CST), but using simulation software makes it unable to utilize the results practically. Although before fabrication we will analysis its effects using simulation software, but bringing our designed antenna into hard from (fabrication) is much important for utilizing the results either in military,medical,sports or even in communications.
