The main
objective of this book is to present efficient wearable systems, compact
sensors and antennas for Communication and Healthcare Systems. The major application of wearable Body Area Networks (BANs),
and of Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs), is to help physicians to monitor
the health of their patients.
This book may serve students and design
engineers as a reference book. It presents new designs in the area of wearable
systems and antennas, metamaterial antennas, fractal antennas and active
receiving and transmitting antennas.
The new edition presents new wearable active
and passive microstrip circular antennas, green electronic technologies,
microwave measurements, ethic dilemmas and considerations in development of
wearable devices.
