Design of Rectangular Textile Antenna for S-Band Applications

Abstract: In wireless and mobile communication, where the size of the antenna is a limitation, micro strip patch antennas are more advantageous. Due to rapid growth in the wearable communication industry, Now-a-days textile antennas are more popular. Wearable antennas are found to have more advantages due to their small size and can be integrated into a personal accessory. In this paper, we designed a narrow band textile patch antenna for an operating frequency of 2.8GHz with and without defective ground structure in the ground plane. The embedded DGS is a rectangular slot. The results are simulated using HFSS. The dimensions of the patch antenna are computed with high accuracy.
