Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of a Left-Handed Circular Polarization (LHCP) wearable antenna with different textile material (substrates) for Global Positioning System (GPS) application. The proposed antennas have achieved circular polarization (CP) by truncating two opposite edged of the square patch for all designed antennas with three different substrates. The analysis is focusing on using felt, jeans and cotton as substrates while maintaining shieldit supper as a conductor. The performance comparison have been made on the simulated reflection coefficient (S11), axial ratio (AR), bandwidth and gain. The results show that jeans fabric attained a better reflection coefficient of-41.36 dB at 1.575 GHz as compared to the other materials. Besides, the jeans has achieved good AR bandwidth of 17 MHz, followed by felt with AR bandwidth of 16 MH and cotton with AR bandwidth of 13 MHz.
