Abstract
Regulation of temperature between the body and clothing makes it possible for the body to stay in the proper temperature range in different conditions. For this purpose, various materials and methods are used in the process of designing clothes. Glass wool is commonly used in jackets and other clothes as a thermal insulator. Designing an antenna based on the properties of glass wool provides an opportunity to produce smart thermoregulatory jackets. We propose an aperture-coupled antenna sensor that uses glass wool's thermal properties. First, the dielectric properties of glass wool were assessed between 35 °C to 41 °C, and there was a 0.05 change in relative permittivity per one-degree change in temperature. Second, the sensor was designed in a bilayer structure with glass wool as the top substrate and FR4 as the bottom substrate in the X frequency band. The results showed a 60MHz shift in the antenna's resonance frequency per one-degree increase.
