IV. BODY WORN ANTENNA
Support of ever increasing applications for wireless data and communications on a body-centric platform
requires novel antenna systems that can be integrated with the body-worn environment, while
maintaining free-range of movement and minimal mass impact. E-textile antennas show great promise
due to their ease of integration with other textile materials, and they are inherently low-mass and flexible
relative to conventional antenna materials. For body-centric applications [7], the low-mass, flexibility,
and integration simplicity of e-textile antennas can enable multiple-antenna systems, which otherwise
would be precluded by the rigidity and mass of conventional antenna materials.
V. PROPOSED ANTENNA
Based on the above review, we are going to propose a fractal body worn antenna with Meta material
substrate for biomedical application. Requirement for Hybrid antenna design:
1. Metamaterial will provide miniaturization of the antenna with desired frequency along with SAR
reduction [4] [5].
2. Body worn antenna will provide the desired flexibility [7].
3. Fractal antenna will give optimum antenna design with low frequency. Since Biomedical signals are
dealing with low frequency, so fractal array antenna will give good result [6]

In proposed antenna model we are going to combine Koch, snowflake construction antenna array with
Pentagonal Rings Shaped Metamaterial ground. The full structure can be printed on flexible substrate to
meet the target of Bio Medical application .
VI. CONCLUSION
After reviewing all the paper, it is obvious that body worn with low SAR antenna can be best designed by
fractal model with metamaterial ground or substrate. So based on antenna parameter improvement like
VSWR, gain, Return loss etc, metamaterial position can be changed. SAR level also can be changed by
changing the position of antenna in the body.
