摘要

The designed low-profile hexagonal monopole wearable flexible textile antenna is highly suitable for healthcare applications. Utilizing a hexagonal splint ring as a radiating element, microstrip feed, and defective ground, this antenna is constructed with copper conductive material on a 0.7 mm substrate. With dimensions of 18 mm by 30 mm, the antenna exhibits resonance at 2.4 and 5 GHz, providing consistent performance with a constant gain above 3.2 dBi and directivity above 6.1 dBi in human tissue. It operates efficiently within the frequency ranges of 2.2–3.5 GHz and 4.21–6.23 GHz. The antenna’s design ensures low manufacturing complexity, a small size, a constant frequency response, and a low specific absorption rate (SAR), making it ideal for integration into wearable healthcare devices. These attributes ensure reliable and effective wireless communication for healthcare monitoring and communication systems. The proposed textile antenna thus meets the critical requirements of wearable applications, demonstrating its potential for widespread adoption in healthcare monitoring technologies.
