Abstract
Many phantom models with detailed external and internal features have been introduced in recent years by researchers and are now provided with commercial electromagnetic simulators. Phantoms vary in size, resolution, internal structure and posture. Although some phantoms can be posed, it is not straightforward to recreate the exact positions of test subjects for validation purposes. This section focuses on creating a moving human model with postures closely corresponding to those used in measurements to be used for validation in EM software.

Embroidery and related manufacturing techniques for wearable antennas: Challenges and opportunities

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the evolution of wearable textile antennas over the last couple of decades and gave particular emphasis to the process of embroidery, which is advantageous for the following reasons: (i) bespoke or mass produced designs can be manufactured using digitized embroideries machines; (ii) glue is not required and (iii) the designs are aesthetic and are integrated into clothing rather than being attached to it.
