Body-centric LoRa networks based on system-integrated textile SIW antennas

Building on recent innovations in wireless technology and antenna development, this paper presents several recent contributions investigating the performance of body-centric LoRa networks using a compact, wearable LoRa system with integrated textile substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) antennas. Measurements were gathered in indoor and outdoor propagation environments, and for body-tobody and body-to-base-station link configurations. For each application environment, considerable range improvements were observed when compared to more traditional wireless technologies used for body-centric communication.
