Embroidered Textile Logarithmic Spiral Antenna and Its Energy Efficiency

Davor Bonefačić

Sažetak

The paper presents the parametric analysis of logarithmic spiral antenna which is followed with prototype design by embroidering conductive yarn into denim material. To match the antenna, exponentially tapered microstrip balun has been designed. The antenna exhibits stable properties across wide frequency band which makes it suitable for collecting the energy from outside sources.
