Stretch analysis of polydimethylsiloxane composite microstrip patch antenna for 5G application

A stretchable microstrip antenna with conductive polysiloxane silver ink and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composite is presented. The antenna is designed at center frequency 3.5GHz for fifth-generation wireless (5G) applications. The PDMS composite offers a flexibility to the antenna and can a good a...

Description
Summary:A stretchable microstrip antenna with conductive polysiloxane silver ink and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composite is presented. The antenna is designed at center frequency 3.5GHz for fifth-generation wireless (5G) applications. The PDMS composite offers a flexibility to the antenna and can a good applicant for on body wearable electronic. The antenna attached to the body will easily bend due to the human body shape and movement. Thus, the antenna simulation performance under stretching condition are discussed in this paper.
