This paper introduces a small-sized, low profile, planar and flexible ultra-wide band (UWB) antenna using Jeans, a textile material as the substrate. A novel shape of hexagonal slot in rectangular step shape patch with partial ground plane is developed with bandwidth of 12 GHz is proposed. It is the primary approach in using natural textile as the substrate for UWB antenna which operated in a wide range of bandwidth. The UWB antenna is designed for short range applications including wireless body area network (WBAN), which is the current revolution with growing demands in wireless sensor networks. The antenna operates from 2.8 to 10.9 GHz, which is a suitable candidate for WBAN operation.

本文介绍了一种以纺织材料为基底的小尺寸，低剖面，平面且柔性的超宽带（UWB）天线。提出了一种新的具有部分接地平面的矩形阶梯形状补丁中的六边形缝隙形状，其带宽为12 GHz。这是将天然纺织物用作在宽带宽范围内工作的UWB天线的主要方法。UWB天线专为包括无线人体局域网（WBAN）在内的短距离应用而设计，这是无线传感器网络需求不断增长的当前革命。天线的工作频率为2.8至10.9 GHz，是WBAN操作的合适候选者。
