Space applications of body-centric wireless and e-textile antennas are numerous. Along with the traditional data sources, such as voice, tracking, and video, new data sources including biotelemetry, high-rate video and data, detailed tracking information and status of handheld tools, devices and on-body inventories have brought about a need for increased performance from antenna systems. E-textile antennas, which typically entail lighter weights and highly conformal properties, show great
