Sažetak

One of the challenges in development of bodycentric communication and sensor systems is to design wearable antennas that are technically and aesthetically acceptable to be worn. This paper describes a novel wearable antenna design - textile realization of slotted waveguide antenna. In order to characterize the proposed antenna solution, the measured antenna parameters were compared with the parameters of the equivalent antenna made from aluminium. The realized antenna is suitable for realization of off-body ommunication mode and can be integrated into clothing, e.g. as a smart belt.
