Abstract
In the paper a textile Vee antenna made through physical vapor deposition of metal on textile material is presented. It can accomplish a wider frequency bandwidth than that of the original Vee antenna made with the embroidering technique. Dependence of both impedance and radiation patterns of the antenna on various values of the technology parameters is investigated. The radiation pattern is examined both for free space and on-body locations.
