摘要：
The paper presents a wearable fractal textile antenna design for Wireless Body Area network. The antenna is designed by using hybrid Sierpinski-Minkowski fractal geometry on the microstrip patch antenna. The proposed textile wearable antenna based on fractal geometry acts as multiband antenna and is applicable for ISM band, WiFi, Bluetooth, WLAN and WIMAX, C-band and X-band applications. The multiband resonance is achieved by optimizing the antenna design geometry. The denim material is used as a substrate for the proposed textile antenna. The wearable antenna is fabricated and tested for the on-body and off-body conditions. The antenna on-body is tested at two positions of human body: thigh and wrist. The measured results of antenna tested on wrist provided high impedance bandwidth of 97% (2.08–6 GHz) at 4.04 GHz and 39.4% at 7.6 GHz frequencies. The antenna provides high gain of 4.76 dBi, 5.32 dBi, 5.13 dBi, 3.88 dBi and 4.01 dBi at 2.45 GHz, 3.6 GHz, 4.9 GHz, 7.4 GHz and 9.6 GHz resonant frequencies respectively. The antenna attains 86.13% efficiency at 2.45 GHz frequency.
