Summary:
The field of wearable computing has received considerable global attention in recent years, and within the area of wireless communication systems, Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPAN) and Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN) have been the focus of considerable research, including various types of antennas for these applications [1] - [3]. This paper describes the basic characteristics of three types of radiating element for UWB antennas placed in the vicinity of a human finger and proposes a ring-type lower radiating element for UWB antennas.
