Abstract

This work investigates the transmission performance of on-body antennas with the proposed textile Artificial Magnetic Conductor (AMC) waveguide jacket. On-body measurements have been performed on male and female subjects to compare the S21 transmission of the antennas when positioned on top of the AMC sheet. The on-body transmission performance of the antennas when positioned on top of the AMC jacket exhibit good agreement for both male and female subjects. S21 peaks are obtained at 2.45GHz resonant frequency for all the measurements on the male and female subjects. With the introduction of the AMC waveguide sheet, the transmission performance between the antennas was enhanced. Results proved that the proposed AMC sheet works well on both male and female bodies; and its performance is independent of body type as well as the orientation and position of the antennas.
