Abstract
This paper presents a button shaped antenna based on a microstrip Yagi array. The proposed antenna is suitable for Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) and telemedicine applications operating at 2.45 GHz. Antenna properties, such as far-field radiation patterns, coupling coefficient, measured by the scattering parameter S11, and gain are provided. Moreover, the simulated performance of the proposed antenna is compared to circular and rectangular patch button shaped antennas having similar sizes. Design and simulations are performed using CST Microwave Studio software which is based on the Finite Integration Technique (FIT). The proposed antenna achieved a gain of 6.7 dB, (F/B) ratio of 11.7 dB and a semi-directional radiation pattern required for on body and off body applications.
