“…It is observed from the plot shown in Fig. 11 that simulated parallel notches loaded antenna structure has given similar results as in reported [21], simulated and theoretical results. It is found that there is no change in bandwidth of simulated and measured results but there change in the resonating length of frequency.…”

The theoretical analysis of parallel symmetrical notches loaded patch antenna for wireless applications is presented. The geometric analysis of the antenna is done to get the optimum results for wireless body area network. An antenna characteristic has been discussed for symmetrical notches length and width and distance between notches those optimum results. It is found that proposed antenna resonate at 2.37 GHz having the bandwidth of 14 MHz. The results of parallel notches loaded patch antenna is compared with reported, theoretical, and measured results.

“…A standing wave pattern can also be observed from the current distribution on the loop and patches. To further enhance the performance of the antenna in terms of bandwidth and efficiency and minimise the detuning effects of the human body, an air substrate (air gap) is used between the top and bottom layers of the FPCB [14]. Though this arrangement results in a slightly less rigid structure, facilitation of body-conformity and increased performance in on-body scenarios (observed in Section IV) make this arrangement a good trade-off.…”

“…It affects the antenna performance by detuning frequency and distorting radiation pattern [2], [10]. Although lower frequency ranges offer a wide variety of antenna solutions coping with these performance hurdles employing slot patches [11], embroidered fabrics [12], flexible substrates [13], [14] and substrate integrated waveguides [15] to name few, these challenges remain for the mm-Wave frequency band and need further exploration [16], [17].…”

Abstract-Millimetre-Wave frequencies are a front runner contender for the next generation body-centric wireless communications. In this paper, design of a very low profile antenna is presented for body-centric applications operating in the millimetre-wave frequency band centred at 60 GHz. The antenna has an overall size of 14×10.5×1.15 mm 3 and is printed on a flexible printed circuit board. The performance of the antenna is evaluated in off-body, on-body and body-to-body communication scenarios using a realistic numerical phantom and verified through measurements. The antenna has a bandwidth of 9.8 GHz and offers a gain of 10.6 dBi in off-body (free space) configuration while 12.1 dBi in on-body configuration. It also acheives an efficiency of 74% in off-body and 63% in on-body scenario. The small and flexible structure of the antenna along with excellent impedance matching, broad bandwidth, high gain and good efficiency makes it a suitable candidate to attain simultaneous data transmission/reception at millimetre-wave frequencies for the 5G body-centric applications.

“…They are least sensitive to the human body effects and have very low SAR [13]. Various studies have been carried out to investigate the merits and demerits of the patch antennas when they are used in the MBAN [13]- [15].…”
