This paper presents design, development and evaluation of a fully fabric annular ring microstrip antenna suitable for wearable applications in WLAN band. Both simulated and experimental results on the performance characteristics of this antenna are presented.enWearable Antennas, microstrip configuration, WBAN, electrotextiles, annular ring geometryAnnular ring microstrip antenna for body-worn applications /Article
