description A coplanar-waveguide-type fed half-circular spike-shaped monopole antenna is designed on textile substrates and analyzed in this paper. The most suitable textile substrate is identified in this work by testing the current model performance characteristics on silk, jeans and cotton fabrics and is presented this analytical study. The cotton material model provided a bandwidth of 9.4 GHz, the silk material provided a 9.2 GHz bandwidth and the jeans material provided 9.1 GHz. A maximum gain of 9.5 dB was attained for 3.6 GHz of the 5G band and 8.2 dB for 5.8 GHz of the WLAN band. The antenna is prototyped on cotton substrate, bending analysis is also performed at 15 degrees, 30 degrees and 45 degrees in vertical and horizontal conditions and we find satisfactory results for the specified application. Compact, wearable antennas with varied performance are in demand as wireless communication systems evolve. The antenna is designed for wearable and textile-integrated wireless communication. The textile substrate makes the antenna flexible and can be integrated into garments, wearable gadgets and smart textiles. This paper describes how to choose textile materials and design a half-circular spike monopole antenna. Electromagnetic simulations evaluate the antenna’s impedance matching, radiation pattern and bandwidth. The CPW feedline is designed to efficiently transfer power to the antenna, improving performance. This study also examines the antenna’s longevity and resilience in textile materials, addressing real-world issues like bending and washing. This examination verifies the antenna’s wearable functionality and reliability.
