title = "Time-Domain Performance of a Directional Wearable UWB Antenna under Bending",
abstract = "The time-domain performance of a wearable UWB antenna under bending is presented in this paper. The system fidelity factor (SFF) is evaluated for a case where a cylindrical bending radius of 50 mm is applied to both the transmitting and receiving antennas at a distance of 380 mm. The antenna demonstrates to maintain relatively high SFF with an average value of 81% and 76% under H-plane and E-plane bending, respectively. It exhibits a promising pulse-preserving capability suitable for UWB pulse transmission. The comparative evaluation indicates that the SFF slightly decreases under bending for directional UWB antennas.",
