A Bowtie Antenna Prepared by Aerosol Jet and Embroidering Technology

摘要

This paper presents a research focused on development of a flexible fractal antenna optimized for Ultra-Wideband communication for smart textile or wearable IoT applications. A bowtie pattern was chosen as design of the flexible antenna, which is prepared by two technologies: aerosol jet and embroidering. Demonstrators of the final antenna design were fabricated and tested.
