摘要: 该文设计了一款加载人工磁导体(AMC)的三频可穿戴天线,分别设计了三叉戟结构的三频单极子天线和三层方形环状的三频AMC单元,天线和AMC均采用半柔性基板Rogers 4003,通过在天线背面加载4×5的AMC阵列,获得的集成天线实测工作带宽为2.38–2.52 GHz、3.3–3.86 GHz和5.54–7.86 GHz三个频段,覆盖ISM科学频段(2.4–
2.4835 GHz)、5G-n78频段(3.3–3.8 GHz)和5G-WiFi 5.8 GHz频段(5.725–5.875 GHz)。在2.4 GHz、3.5 GHz和5.8 GHz处实测得到的增益分别为7.1 dB、7 dB和7.1 dB,较不加载时分别提升了5.3 dB、4.6 dB和2.2 dB;前后比(FBR)分别为20.8、18.0、18.8 dB,较不加载AMC时分别提升了19.8 dB、16.7 dB和12.4 dB。此外,AMC反射板能够有效降低比吸收率(SAR值),使得集成天线SAR值均在0.025 W/Kg/g以下,远低于美国联邦通信委员会(FCC)标准和欧洲联邦通信委员会(ETSI)标准,并对天线附着在人体胸腔、背部和大腿上时的性能进行实测,测试结果表明,所设计的天线能够安全、灵活地应用于人体。-

Abstract: This paper designs a tri-band wearable antenna based on an Artificial Magnetic Conductor (AMC). A tri-frequency monopole antenna with a trident structure and a tri-frequency AMC unit with a three-layer square ring configuration were designed respectively. Both the antenna and the AMC are fabricated on a semi-flexible Rogers4003 substrate. By loading a 4×5 AMC array on the back of the antenna, the integrated antenna achieves a measured operating bandwidth covering three frequency bands: 2.38-2.52 GHz, 3.3-3.86 GHz, and 5.54-7.86 GHz. These bands cover the ISM scientific band (2.4-2.4835 GHz), the 5G-n78 band (3.3-3.8 GHz), and the 5G-WiFi 5.8 GHz band (5.725-5.875 GHz). The measured gains at 2.4GHz, 3.5GHz, and 5.8GHz were 7.1dB, 7dB, and 7.1dB respectively, representing improvements of 5.3dB, 4.6dB, and 2.2dB compared to the unloaded state. The front-to-back ratio (FBR) was 20.8 dB, 18.0 dB, and 18.8 dB, respectively, representing improvements of 19.8 dB, 16.7 dB, and 12.4 dB compared to the unloaded AMC. Additionally, the AMC reflector effectively reduces the specific absorption rate (SAR), ensuring that the integrated antenna's SAR remains below 0.025 W/kg, which is far lower than the standards set by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).Additionally, the performance of the antenna was measured when it was attached to the human chest, back, and thigh. The test results demonstrate that the designed antenna can be applied to the human body safely and flexibly.-
