Abstract

This chapter explores the convergence of wireless communication technologies and the Internet of Things (IoT) in the development of smart clothing—intelligent garments embedded with sensors, actuators, and microelectronics for data sensing, processing, and transmission. It presents a comprehensive technological framework, covering wearable electronics, body area networks, and key communication protocols such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Wi-Fi, Zigbee, and LoRa. The chapter also examines the design and integration of textile-based sensors, flexible antennas, and energy-efficient microcontrollers, addressing critical challenges in comfort, durability, and washability. Reliability, latency, and data security issues are analyzed in the context of applications in healthcare, sports, industry, and defense. Current research trends including energy harvesting, AI-based data processing, and 6G-ready textiles are discussed alongside real-world case studies.
