Abstract :
This paper presents the performances of circular polarization (CP) array textile antenna in different bending condition. The antenna composed four circular patches in array formation where the patches composes a cross slot at the centre of the patch. In flat condition, a good bandwidth (2.06 GHz - 2.49 GHz), axial ratio (2.38 GHz - 2.62 GHz) with realized gain of 3.09 dB is presented and compared with other bending condition to suits with application of rectenna for energy harvesting system and antenna for monitoring system.
