Abstract :
This paper describes the simulated results of plaster type wearable dual band antenna made of fabric cloth for BAN use. VSWR less than 2 at ISM band (2.45 GHz) and UWB band (7.25 - 10.25 GHz) was obtained when antenna was mounted on finger. The operational mechanism was clear by simulated current distributions on finger-ring antenna.
