In the modern world many sensor devices are designed for medical and industrial applications. This idea is designing a dual band wearable antenna at 2.4GHz, 5.8GHz and investigating the wearability of antenna for medical applications. The test is carriedout in multiple tissue structure. These wearable antennas are very small in size, directly it can be worn in wrist or abdomen and inside the body. Different feeding structure will be compared to reduce the heating of antenna due to an electromagnetic interaction with bodies. This design has two dual antennas, one act like an interrogator and the next acts like a receiver. Interrogator is an outside device and the receiver antenna is connected within the human body. The proposed antenna is simulated by high frequency simulation software .The advantage of this antenna is very small and comfort for wearing in human bodies.

Flexible Antennas

Having the merits of being light-weight, energy efficient, in addition to low manufacturing cost, reduced fabrication complexity, and the availability of inexpensive flexible substrates, flexible and wearable technology is being established as an appealing alternative to the conventional electronics technologies which are based on rigid substrates. This chapter is organized as follow into three major sections. In the first part, a detailed review of wearable antennas including applications and antenna families is presented. The second part of this project deals with the flexible antennas materials and fabrication methods. A wearable antenna prototype for medical applications, more accurately, early breast cancer detection, is discussed in the last section of this chapter.
