可穿戴式柔性天线具有柔软、易弯曲和可扭转等优点,已广泛应用于可穿戴通讯领域。常规的柔性天线只具备可弯曲性而不具备可拉伸性,使得其在应用中存在诸多限制,因此,研究和制作可拉伸天线对柔性天线的发展和应用具有至关重要的作用。Wearable flexible antennas have been widely used in the field of wearable communications due to their softness, flexibility, and twistability. Conventional flexible antennas are only bendable but not stretchable, so there are many limitations in their applications.

Fig. 4 is the curve graph of the S11 parameter changing with frequency under different stretching degrees (stretching 0%, stretching 100%, stretching 200%) of the flexible stretchable antenna of the embodiment; As can be seen from Fig. 4, when the embodiment When the stretching degree of the flexible and stretchable antenna is 200%, the center frequency used is stable at 5.61GHz, and the bandwidth does not change. However, the maximum stretchability of the currently reported stretchable antenna is 120%, and the center frequency and bandwidth are unstable. Therefore, the vertical flexible stretchable antenna provided by the present invention still has good Stability, suitable for the field of wearable antennas.
