In this paper, a low-profile electromagnetic band-gap enabled textile wearable antenna covering the spectrum between the 2.36 and 2.40 GHz of the new released medical wireless body networks (MBANs), is presented. The integrated EBG with the proposed antenna reduces the radiation intensity into the human tissues around 13 dB; and also decreases the effect of frequency detuning Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) evaluation is also carried out to validate the performance of the antenna when it is placed closely to human body. The antenna size and its ultimate performances could be selected as a good candidate for integration into various wearable and bio-medical devices.
