Abstract

Multiple antenna communication systems are a solution to meet the demand for pervasive computing and ubiquitous wireless communications. As multiple antenna communication systems become more broadly deployed, integrating unobtrusive antennas into various form factors is becoming increasingly important. Antennas that are flexible and transparent can ease this design constraint. In this paper, we present a dipole conductive polymer antenna that is flexible and transparent. The focus of this paper is to show how well this antenna works in a communications network by evaluating channel capacity and packet error rate.
