    A pocket-integrated miniature, dual-band, and high gain textile MIMO antenna for 5G and WiFi wearable applications

    No full text
    This paper reports a miniature low-profile denim textile 2-port MIMO (multiple-input-multiple-output) antenna for dual-bands: 5G sub-6 3.5 GHz and Wi-Fi 5.2 GHz wearable applications. This MIMO antenna has impedance bandwidths and peak gain of 310 MHz and 8.3 dBi and 950 MHz 13.0 dBi at 3.5 and 5.2 GHz, respectively. This MIMO antenna has a compact area of 0.078 λ02, with both antenna elements of the MIMO being a modified elliptical patch, L-shaped stubs for impedance matching, and a circular decoupling ring to achieve > 25 dB port isolation. The designed antenna is very tiny and integrated into the shirt's pocket. It is tested in two positions, i.e., hidden (integrated inside the pocket, for example, military applications) and visible (when integrated on the pocket surface for conventional communication). Moreover, the antenna's working is analyzed in these positions (hidden and visible), and it was found that it functions well in both 5G sub-6 GHz and Wi-Fi frequency bands with nearly close gain values and communication range. This MIMO antenna has a very small ECC (envelope correlation coefficient) of 0.006/0.002 in both frequency bands, which shows high channel isolation. The 1 gm/10 gm SAR (specific absorption rate) values at 3.5 and 5.2 GHz are 0.034/0.057 and 0.026/0.0132 W/Kg, respectively, substantially lesser than the recommended values of FCC/ICNIRP

    A Compact Wearable Textile Antenna for NB-IoT and ISM Band Patient Tracking Applications

    This paper proposes a novel multi-band textile monopole antenna for patient tracking applications. The designed antenna has compact footprints (0.13 lambda 02) and works in the narrow band-internet of things (NB-IoT) 1.8 GHz, radio frequency identification (RFID), and industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) 2.45 GHz and 5.8 GHz bands. The impedance bandwidths and gain of the antenna at 1.8 GHz, 2.45 GHz, and 5.8 GHz are 310 MHz, 960 MHz, and 1140 MHz; 3.7 dBi, 5.3 dBi, and 9.6 dBi, respectively. Also, the antenna's behavior is checked on different body parts of the human body in various bending scenarios. As per the evaluated link budget, the designed antenna can easily communicate up to 100 m of distance. The specific absorption rate values of the designed antenna are also within acceptable limits as per the (FCC/ICNIRP) standards at the reported frequency bands. Unlike traditional rigid antennas, the proposed textile antenna is non-intrusive, enhancing user safety and comfort. The denim material makes it comfortable for extended wear, reducing the risk of skin irritation. It can also withstand regular wear and tear, including stretching and bending. The presented denim-based antenna can be seamlessly integrated into clothing and accessories, making it less obtrusive and more aesthetically pleasing

    Low-loss MIMO antenna wireless communication system for 5G cardiac pacemakers

    No full text
    Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the leading causes of death globally. The Internet of things (IoT) enabled with industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) bands (2.45 and 5.8 GHz) facilitates pacemakers to remotely share heart health data to medical professionals. For the first time, communication between a compact dual-band two-port multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna (integrated inside the leadless pacemaker) and an outside-body dual-band two-port MIMO antenna in the ISM 2.45 and 5.8 GHz frequency bands is demonstrated in this work. The proposed communication system offers an attractive solution for cardiac pacemakers as it can operate on a 5G IoT platform while also being compatible with existing 4G standards. The experimental verification of the proposed MIMO antenna low-loss communication capability is also presented by comparing it to the existing single-input-single-output communication between the leadless pacemaker and outside body monitoring device
