Abstract
In this chapter, we show a circular polarization (CP), wearable antenna, with a flexible substrate for GPS, DCS, and PCS applications. The CP was created using different methods, for example, we truncated two opposite edges of a square patch, as well as using other methods. We used a coplanar waveguide for feeding and the substrate material antenna is Rogers RO4003. The dimensions of the proposed antenna is 76 × 76 mm, with a thickness of 0.8 mm, a relative permittivity of 3.55, and dielectric loss tangent of 0.0027. The chapter goes on to show that the CP, wearable antenna has a 3-dB axial ratio (AR) bandwidth of 520 MHz (26%), a return loss (RL) of 10 dB, and impedance bandwidth of 2.9 GHz (97%). The antenna was simulated by HFSS (High Frequency Electromagnetic Field) software.
