Abstract

This paper present the investigation on wearable textile slot antenna under flat and curvature conditions in free space. The antenna can be used for smart clothing at 2.45 GHz Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band. A 0.78 mm denim fabric is used as the substrate. A monopole antenna is patented on the fabric with a ground plane at the other side. The monopole and the ground is made of a 0.17 mm shield-it fabric. Simulated results of proposed design in term of bandwidth, return loss, realized gain, efficiency and radiation pattern are presented and discussed thoroughly. Results show that the antenna curve significantly detuned the antenna resonance frequency and altered the antenna radiation pattern.
