Microwave measurement techniques for wearable antennas

This research is germane to the area of on-body antennas and the characterisation of antennas in close proximity to biological matter. The ranges of frequencies discussed are currently popular for mobile communications, namely 0.9GHz to 6GHz with spot frequencies of GSM900, GSM1800 and WiFi2.5GHz. P...
