In this paper a flexible and body-friendly antenna for 5G applications has been analyzed. The main goal is to use this device for wearable sensing applications since a biocompatible and flexible substrate, polyethylene naphthalate, has been chosen. The proposed antenna is a dual band PIFA antenna that resonates at 3.81 GHz and 6.22 GHz. Both frequencies are suitable for 5G applications: 3.81 GHz is a reserved frequency in Europe, while 6.22 GHz is used in USA. In this work, the design of the antenna is described in detail and numerical results, in terms of scattering parameter, gain and 3D radiation patterns, are analyzed.

Abstract
In this paper a flexible and body-friendly antenna for 5G applications has been analyzed. The main goal is to use this device for wearable sensing applications since a biocompatible and flexible substrate, polyethylene naphthalate, has been chosen. The proposed antenna is a dual band PIFA antenna that resonates at 3.81 GHz and 6.22 GHz. Both frequencies are suitable for 5G applications: 3.81 GHz is a reserved frequency in Europe, while 6.22 GHz is used in USA. In this work, the design of the antenna is described in detail and numerical results, in terms of scattering parameter, gain and 3D radiation patterns, are analyzed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
