Patent ID: 11870135

Abstract:
A resonant wearable antenna system includes a ground plane and an antenna structure positioned over the ground plane. The ground plane includes a first cloth substrate and an array of metamaterial (MTM) unit cells positioned on the substrate. At least one MTM unit cell includes four four-leaf-clover units arranged in a four-leaf-clover pattern and connected to a center unit. Each four-leaf-clover unit includes four leaf units arranged in a four-leaf-clover pattern and connected to a subcenter unit. The antenna structure includes a second cloth substrate and a conductive pattern positioned over the second cloth substrate. The antenna structure is configured to have a first resonant frequency below 1 GHz and a second resonant frequency higher than the first resonant frequency. The array of MTM unit cells is configured to reflect incident waves, from the antenna structure at the first resonant frequency and the second resonant frequency, in-phase.
