Potential space applications for body-centric wireless and E-textile antennas

Abstract: Space applications of body-centric wireless and e-textile antennas are numerous. Along with the traditional data sources, such as voice, tracking, and video, new data sources including biotelemetry, high-rate video and data, detailed tracking information and status of handheld tools, devices and on-body inventories have brought about a need for increased performance from antenna systems. E-textile antennas, which typically entail lighter weights and highly conformal properties, show great potential for the nex… Show more

“…The sheet resistance specified by the manufacturer is typically and the sheet thickness is , and thus the conductivity of the textile material is , which is approximately 300 times smaller than the conductivity of . The effect of the electrical conductivity of textile material on antenna gain and field pattern has been investigated by other researchers [12], [23], [34]. In [12], [23], textile antennas made of a conductive fabric and solid copper were compared experimentally and no significant reduction in antenna performance was observed.…”

“…Aerospace applications of textile antennas and passive microwave textile components, in particular, are examined in [12], [13]. Since textile antennas are made of flexible fabric materials, the effects of antenna bending [14] and crumpling [15], [16] and moisture [17] on the antenna performance play a critical role.…”

“…Some of the important ones are textile antennas for UWB WBAN [1], Bluetooth [2] and ISM band [3,4] applications, dual-band [5 -6], dual-polarized [7] and aperture-coupled [8] textile antennas. Aerospace applications of textiles antennas and passive microwave textile components are announced in [9,10]. Because textile antennas have a flexible structure, the effects of antenna bending [11] and crumpling [12,13] on the antenna performance are also investigated.…”
