Matching of Half-Mode SIW Structures on Textiles Using Self-Adhesive Conductive Tapes

According to the simulation, examples of HM-SIW on textiles with taper matching to a micro strip were constructed and measured. The HM-SIW structures are constructed on 50
$\boldsymbol{\Omega}$
microstrip line. They are without via holes and use conductive tape with conductive adhesive to shorten the edges and semitapers for matching.
