Abstract :
A super-wideband tree shaped textile antenna with simple design is presented. The measured reflection coefficient magnitude provides acceptable operating frequency (S11 at -6dB level) from 1.8GHz up to more than 20GHz. The antenna also performs well under bending conditions. With the simple design, the tree shaped textile antenna offers super-wideband which is suitable for many applications.
