The antenna is immune to direct skin contact, and also demonstrates very good frequency and time domain properties in free space or at any distance to a body: reflection coefficient and radiation pattern resilience to body influence; flat transfer function amplitude and linear phase over the desired frequency band from 6 GHz to 9 GHz. Superior time domain performance is demonstrated in simulation and measurements with average impulse fidelity of 97% in both free space and when placed at 0 mm or 3 mm over the body. Off-body ranging measurements show accuracies of the order of 5 cm and achievable range higher than 5 m for almost all frontal directions (16 m being the maximum), with transmitting power complying with the international regulation.
