Abstract

ABSTRACT This letter proposes a wearable antenna fabricated by multifilament threads. The radiator is conductive threads filled with a copper wire, directly sewn onto a piece of cloth. Its advantages include better impedance matching, enhanced radiation efficiency, and additional value to smart clothing because the radiator is shaped into a logotype. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
