“…However, one of the disadvantages of the meandering line used is the narrow bandwidth [26,27] compared to the traditional PIFA in Figure 2. Another disadvantage is a matching network required to be placed at the antenna's input to achieve a good impedance matching for maximum efficiency [28].…”

This paper focuses on a printed inverted-F antenna (PIFA) with meandering line and meandering shorting strip under 2.4 GHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band for Internet of things (IoT) applications. Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology is one of potential platforms and technologies for IoT applications under ISM band. Printed circuit board (PCB) antenna commonly used in commercial and medical applications because of its small size, low profile, and low cost compared to low temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) technology. The proposed structure of PIFA is implemented on PCB to gain all these advantages. Replacing conventional PCB line in PIFA by the meandering line and meandering shorting strip improves the efficiency of the PIFA as well as the bandwidth. As a case study, design and measurement results of the proposed PIFA are presented.

“…e structure of the antenna is based on a meander-line technology that allows it to achieve miniaturization in size and wideband antenna performance by combining a set of horizontal and vertical lines that form right-angle bends. e efficiency and resonant frequency of a meander-line antenna depend on the number of turns of a meander and the spacing between the meander-lines, respectively [33].…”

The field of wearable computing technology describes the future of electronic systems being an integral part of our everyday clothing with various enhanced functionalities. The present work is aimed at making closer steps towards the real wearability of electronics using textiles. We designed a fully-textile meander line Z–shaped monopole antenna for radio-frequency (RF) harvesting and for short-range communication purposes in the body-area network for various wearable applications. The target antenna was designed in the Ansys HFSS software tool and fabricated on a single-layer cotton textile using silver conductive threads and an embroidery technique. The antenna was characterized using a vector network analyzer (VNA), and the selected design was found to be nearly invariant under different deployment conditions. Antenna performance was studied by measuring the return loss while the antenna was in close proximity to the human body, or under various bending scenarios and/or wet conditions with sweat. The simulated return loss was −20.36 dB at an operating frequency of 1.62 GHz, and the measured return loss for the fabricated antenna was −19.45 dB at 1.6275 GHz with a −10 dB bandwidth of 100 MHz (i.e., 1.58 GHz to 1.68 GHz), and a fractional bandwidth of 6.17%. The results of this study are very important for the design of future wearable antennas in the new concept of the Internet of bodies.

“…The resonant frequencies were shifted by changing the width of meander slots of patch, but without changing total length of meander curve. Misman et al [21] had designed antenna at a frequency 2.4 GHz using conductor and meander lines. Ambhore et al [22] had presented the properties of meander antenna and also had defined the single element slow wave meander circuit and multiple layered meander line antennas.…”

This paper describes a novel design of Minkowski and Meander curves based hybrid fractal antenna for mobile devices used for communication in delay tolerant networks, wireless sensor networks and mobile adhoc networks. Meander curve improves the impedance bandwidth. Minkowski fractal curve gives its contribution to make antenna multiband. The proposed antenna resonates at five frequencies 1. 98, 5.94, 10.61, 12.73, 14.85 GHz. Prior to fabrication, better performance parameters such as return loss, radiation pattern, gain, current distribution, impedance, VSWR are achieved. The maximum bandwidth 2.83 GHz and gain 9.0 dB at 2.4 GHz are achieved. The proposed antenna can be used for various applications like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Wi-Max, Wi-Bro, AWS, GPS, S-DMB, WLAN 802.11b/g and DTH services etc. Simulated and measured results are compared and are found in agreement with each other.
