Abstract
This paper presents a method to improve the conductivity of embroidered patch antenna by using graphene and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanopowder. By dispersion and immersion of graphene and ZnO, the embroidered conductive patch layers have been designed, fabricated and tested. Analysis of the effect of graphene and ZnO solution on patch resistance has been carried out. The measured results show that the conductivity performs better with ZnO dyed embroidered patch layer. In contrast, graphene improves the sheet resistance while ethanol solvent reacts with silver thread.
