Simulation and measurement setup for the proposed WPT system. (a) Homogeneous simulations performed in HFSS with \({\text {T}}_{\text {x}}\) in a flat state. (b) HFSS simulations in a cylindrical phantom with \({\text {T}}_{\text {x}}\) in bent state. (c) Heterogeneous simulations setup in Sim4Life utilizing the Duke model. (d) Fabricated prototypes of the proposed flexible \({\text {T}}_{\text {x}}\) and \({\text {R}}_{\text {x}}\) antennas. (e) Setup for measuring scattering parameters. (f) Validating the performance of scattering parameters during \({\text {T}}_{\text {x}}\) in a bent configuration.
