Based on half-mode substrate-integrated cavity antenna, a mine-used wearable folded half-mode substrate-integrated cavity antenna was designed considering requirements for underground wearable antenna. Width of antenna is reduced by use of folded geometry, and planar antenna is realized with horizontal feeding probe structure. The simulation results show that the antenna resonates at 5 GHz, -10 dB bandwidth is 254 MHz, the maximum gain is 5.4 dBi, radiation efficiency is 70%, and the antenna has radiation direction with wide beamwidth and low back radiation. Besides, -10 dB bandwidth of the antenna can be increased with thicker upper substrate.
