In the recent era, Wearable Technology is one of the promising and challenging technologies.

Wearable Antennas are those antennas which we can wear and that are designed to function while being worn. It used for communication purposes, which includes tracking and navigation, mobile computing and public safety. It also has various applications in the field of medical, mobile communication, navigation and military.

Textile is used as a patch in such antennas. Textile patch antenna uses fabric material for substrate, patch and ground and it becomes part of wearable clothing.

Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a range of frequency (3 GHz to 12 GHz) used for communication purposes, for the transmission of data from transmitting antenna to receiving antenna. It is an emerging technology that promises high-speed data transmission at low cost for wireless communications. UWB is the best technology to be used for the purpose of wearable applications.

Abstract


In the recent era, Wearable Technology is one of the promising and challenging technologies.

Wearable Antennas are those antennas which we can wear and that are designed to function while being worn. It used for communication purposes, which includes tracking and navigation, mobile computing and public safety. It also has various applications in the field of medical, mobile communication, navigation and military.

Textile is used as a patch in such antennas. Textile patch antenna uses fabric material for substrate, patch and ground and it becomes part of wearable clothing.

Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a range of frequency (3 GHz to 12 GHz) used for communication purposes, for the transmission of data from transmitting antenna to receiving antenna. It is an emerging technology that promises high-speed data transmission at low cost for wireless communications. UWB is the best technology to be used for the purpose of wearable applications.
