| Abstract | Wearable antennas for on-body communication are desired to be low profile and planar [1]. Although, planar antennas do not provide very strong path gain due to the close proximity to the human body, they have high priority to other type of the antennas in practice. Different planar types of antennas have been introduced for on-body communication channels. But most of them are designed in free space. Then, the body influence on the antenna characteristics has been investigated [2]. In other words, the proximity of the body as a dielectric bulk to the antenna is ignored at the antenna design stage. However, this volume of dielectric can contribute to radiation of the antenna on and off the body. Also, it can affect the wave propagation mechanism in the communication channel regarding to the antenna type. Therefore, the antenna should excite the wave modes which are supported by communication channel [3]. In this paper, the proximity of the body is included in the antenna design which leads to propose a novel antenna for on-body communication channel. As the initial stage, the behavior of a dipole parallel to the body surface is investigated. This study provides valuable information which is used in the novel surface wave antenna design. To evaluate the new antenna performance, a pair of antenna is put on two opposite sides of cylinder made of muscle tissue property and the path gain results are compared with a pair of parallel dipole and also monopole. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
