“…Khan et al. 7 have structured an antenna using pulp fibers (ligno-cellulose fibril sheet) as a substrate for dual band operation of 2.4–2.5 and 5.725–5.875 GHz. The pulp-based antenna has operated with measured return loss values of –15 dB at 2.7 GHz and –28 dB at 5.6 GHz, respectively.…”

Recently, there has been an abrupt increase in the integration of community antenna to flexible, textile and wearable applications. The proposed work introduces the design of a flexible wearable patch antenna using a jute fiber substrate for better performance. The antenna has been designed and simulated with jute substrate at the operating frequency of 3.23 GHz. The antenna has been fabricated and tested under normal, wet, on-hand and bending conditions using a vector network analyzer. The various parameters such as reflection coefficient parameter and voltage standing wave ratio of the fabricated antenna are measured and compared with the simulation results. The tested results show that the performance of the antenna under normal, wet, on-hand and bending conditions is almost approximately equal. Due to better performance in soaking and bending conditions as well as low cost and adequate availability of jute material, the proposed antenna can be used in various applications such as biomedical, military, radio location, ground radar, search and rescue applications, and more.

“…Recently, substrate made up of textile materials such as cotton, 4 jeans, 5 cellulose (paper based), 6 pulp fibers 7 and flannel fabric 8 and synthetic materials such as polyester, 4 polymer, 4 foam 9 and rubber 10 have been used to structure antennas. These materials enable the antenna to be more adjustable and suitable for all environments.…”
