Design of a ISM Band Wearable Antenna for future Patient Monitoring systems

This work aims to design an efficient and compact wearable antenna for future patient monitoring systems and telemedicine applications. The wearable radiating patch is built above a Jean cloth material and fed with suitable SMA connectors. Emphasis is given further to improve the performance parameters like Return Loss, Gain and radiation pattern of the antenna over the existing designs. It is observed that the Return Loss of the designed antenna is -46.29dB and the Gain hovers at about 7.13dB in the simulated meandered shape microstrip antenna.
