A diamond-shaped patch antenna with slots for desirable return loss, gain, and bandwidth was designed to achieve the intended goal. ROGERS 5880 was chosen as the substrate material and the antenna was simulated using CST (Computer simulation Technology) software. The designed microstrip patch antenna has a bandwidth from 2.12 to 9.24 GHz. The proposed antenna was put on the human body and had a SAR value of 1.44 W/kg, which was determined to be within the acceptable limit of 1.6 W/kg. Hence, the antenna can be used for on-body communication which is not detrimental to the human body.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
