“…Different types of textile materials such as wash cotton, curtain cotton, poly-cotton, jeans cotton, polyester, poly -curtain, leather, flannel fabric, felt fabric, nylon, silk, and fleece are used in (4,(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15). All the material used has a range of dielectric constant from 1.04 to 2.7 with a thickness of 0.09 mm to 2.84mmand loss tangent of 0.0033 to 0.2.…”

“…In addition, jeans cotton have a fairly low dielectric constant compared to other commercially available materials and are widely manufactured throughout the world (16). Table 2 shows the overall characteristics and results obtained in these six papers : The material second most commonly used in these studies is polyester, which is used in (7,9,11,15). The physical properties of polyester, such as strength, absorbency, and dimensional stability, making it a common option for wearable antenna construction.…”

Miniaturization of wireless systems empowered the use of the textile antenna for various purposes and has become one of the fastest developing technology in the world today. In general, textile antennas are microstrip antenna where the substrate is a textile material. Commercially, a variety of textile materials available these days, and the properties of these textiles have an impact on the characteristics and performance of an antenna. Normally, textile materials present a very low dielectric constant which is required for an efficient antenna. Nevertheless, textile fabrics are porous, anisotropic, and compressible materials whose thickness and density alters with low pressure affecting the electromagnetic properties of the material. The features of the textile materials were believed to impact the behavior of the antenna, hence this study shows minimal research highlighted on the differences of textile material properties. This review paper summarizes different types of antenna with their applications, essential antenna parameters, and the textile material used for the construction of the wearable textile antenna. This literature review guides to reveal the various considerations for designing wearable antenna from different textile materials. Lastly, several open recommendations are given for further guidance for future studies.
