The performance and analysis of three different substrate fabrics such as cotton, felt, and jeans for the wearable textile antenna are presented in this paper. The dielectric constants of three fabrics are between 1 and 2 only. The two arcs and one circle slot are created on a hexagonal patch. The Wi-Fi shape wearable textile antenna is designed for WBAN (Wireless Body Area Network) applications. The simulated results of the radiation pattern return loss and VSWR of the aforementioned wearable textile antennas with three different substrates are evaluated, and the same is presented at the end. The Wearable antenna has been designed using HFSS software.

A wideband periodic leaky-wave antenna (LWA) is proposed in this paper. By using lossy dielectric material inside the wedge-like guide as medium for wave propagation, a leaky mode is excited and results in widening the bandwidth. For certain tangential losses, this leaky-wave antenna achieves 20.34% 3-dB gain bandwidth with maximum gain of 19.7 dBi. The antenna experiences low side lobe level (SLL) in general and low cross-polarization over the operating frequency, making the antenna suitable for millimeterwave (mm-wave) applications.INDEX TERMS high gain antenna; wide band antenna, Millimeter-wave; leaky-wave antenna (LWA); lossy material; radial waveguide; wedge-like waveguide VOLUME xx, 2023

“…In this paper RPAs (Rectangular Patch Antenna) are designed with different materials with different dielectric constants in the lower range from 2≤ r<5 with 30 iterations of step size 0.1each. Higher r materials are not considered in this paper as it is known that thin substrate with higher dielectric constant are used for microwave circuitry because of its tightly bound fields; but, they are less efficient and have smaller bandwidth [4,5]. The working range of frequency is 1GHz to 6 GHz which cover our most of the day to day communication.…”

This paper presents an investigation of effect of substrate material properties on the performance of antenna. The simulations are tested for 30 different dielectric materials on the basic RPA antenna model as well as on the most common U shape model using CST Microwave Studio. Two designs are proposed. On the basis of simulation results it has been concluded that for the first design the best material is which has a dielectric constant of 2.7 (𝜀r = 2.7) with bandwidth improvements of around 69.33% to 88.6% as compared to the most frequently used materials at present. For the second design the best result is obtained for the material that has dielectric constant in the range 2.0 to 2.7. For a material having dielectric constant of 2.1 (𝜀r = 2.1) bandwidth improvement of around 11.74% with respect to RT Duroid was observed. For the second design, radiations from all other materials were not available in the working frequency range of 1GHz to 6GHz.
