A Review on Wearable Antennas

Abstract

Specialized antennas called wearable antennas for biotelemetry wireless communication are made to be built into or worn on the body to allow wireless communication between devices like heart monitors, medical implants, and other bio-telemetry equipment. These kinds of antennas are usually incredibly small and need to be able to function properly while near a human body. Wearable antennas for wireless biotelemetry communication can be constructed from a range of materials, such as textiles, polymers, and metals. The UHF, ISM, and Medical Implant Communication Service (MICS) bands are among the several wireless communication frequencies in which they are intended to function. These antennas are essential for the wireless transmission of medical data, including vital signs, that are gathered by biotelemetry devices.
