Two thin films of Polycarbonate(PC) and Polyurethane (PU) are used in order to provideflexibility to the structure. The antenna covers incoming lower5G (n18) and 915-MHz industrial, scientific and medical (ISM)bands and exhibits a maximum gain of -8.78 dBi. Moreover,antenna matching is insensitive to near body influence. %G English %L hal-03324865 %U https://hal.science/hal-03324865 %~ UNIV-NANTES %~ UNIV-RENNES1 %~ CNRS %~ INSA-RENNES %~ IETR %~ SUP_IETR %~ CENTRALESUPELEC %~ UR1-HAL %~ UR1-MATH-STIC %~ UR1-UFR-ISTIC %~ IETR-BEAMS %~ IETR-CUTE %~ IETR-ADH %~ TEST-UR-CSS %~ UNIV-RENNES %~ INSA-GROUPE %~ TEST-HALCNRS %~ UR1-MATH-NUM %~ IETR-STAR %~ NANTES-UNIVERSITE %~ UNIV-NANTES-AV2022 %~ IETR-NANTES
