This paper proposed integrating the communication system on the
garment, which can be utilized to detect breast cancer at an early stage by using
an ultra-wideband (UWB) wearable antenna. Breast cancer is an abnormal
cell that is located in the breast tissue. Early detection of breast cancer plays
an important role, and it helps in the long term for all women. The proposed
UWB wearable antenna successfully operates at 3.1–10.6 GHz under an
acceptable reflection coefficient of −10 dB. The fabricated wearable antenna
was made from Shieldit Super and felt both conductive and nonconductive
wearable materials. Few measurement studies of bending angles have been
carried out that covered 2°, 4°, 6°, 8°, and 10°. In addition, the performance
of UWB antennas in wet environments is studied in four stages: in water,
instantly wet, nearly dry, and entirely dry. There is good agreement between
the measured and simulated outcomes. Based on the experimental results, the
proposed antenna could be helpful for a home breast cancer detection system
