Youssef, Omar MEl Atrash, MohamedAbdallah, Mahmoud A2023-02-102023-02-102023-01http://repository.msa.edu.eg/xmlui/handle/123456789/5339Introduced in this letter is a thin, flexible, compact, and fully fabric I‐shaped quarter‐wavelength antenna, where a 3 × 3 array reflector, is in the antenna rear end. In free space, the I‐shaped antenna radiates at 2.45 GHz of the Industrial, Scientific, and Medical band with simulated realized gain of 1.65 dB and 90% worth of simulated radiation efficiency. The array reflector is utilized to diminish the specific absorption rate (SAR) in human evaluation scenarios. At the operating frequency, in free space, the antenna realized gain is improved by 75% after incorporating the artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) array. Moreover, over 1 g of tissue, a SAR reduction of 99.5% is attained at 2.45 GHz. Simulation and measured S11 and radiation pattern comparisons are highlighted in this letter. Based on the accomplished outcomes, the integrated antenna, comprised of the fully fabric I‐shaped quarter‐wavelength antenna and the AMC array, might be considered for wearable applications.en-UScompact antenna,fully fabric‐based antenna,ISM applications,low SAR,wearable applicationsArticlehttps://doi.org/10.1002/mop.33647
