Abstract :
Simulations comparing the TBH and normal mode helical antennas were conducted and shown to be in close agreement with measured data. Based on this comparison, the TBH antenna provides greater efficiency and an omni directional pattern that is maintained when placed next to the human hand. The TBH further exhibits reduced sensitivity to detuning. Agreement between measured and simulated data also indicates that the three layer hand model is a practical approximation for simulation of the human hand.
