<div>== Introduction ==<br />
With the more broadly use in wearable communication systems nowadays, integrating the system onto clothing has become important. The 2111 project team aims to develop two antennas that could be mounted onto clothing for both on-body and off-body modes. The antennas should be bio-compatible and well-performed. The team will define the material and antenna type and use CST as simulation software to examine the performance of the designed antennas. The final fabrication and measurement will be done in labs at the university. <br />
<br />
== Applications for wearable technology ==<br />
<br />
Wearable communication systems are becoming more relevant in a great number of applications such as medical services and health monitoring. <br />
To set up the connection between the body network and external environment, wearable antennas that are mounted onto clothes or human bodies can be developed to meet the needs for different applications. The antennas are required to use bio-compatible materials and fit various movements of body.<br />

<div>== Introduction ==<br />
With the more broadly use in wearable communication systems nowadays, integrating the system onto clothing has become important. The 2111 project team aims to develop two antennas that could be mounted onto clothing for both on-body and off-body modes. The antennas should be bio-compatible and well-performed. The team will define the material and antenna type and use CST as simulation software to examine the performance of the designed antennas. The final fabrication and measurement will be done in labs at the university. <br />
<br />
== Applications for wearable technology ==<br />
<br />
Wearable communication systems are becoming more relevant in a great number of applications such as medical services and health monitoring. <br />
To set up the connection between the body network and external environment, wearable antennas that are mounted onto clothes or human bodies can be developed to meet the needs for different applications. The antennas are required to use bio-compatible materials and fit various movements of body.<br />
