Description
Summary:This paper proposes a novel, miniaturized implantable antenna design tailored for biomedical applications. The antenna is designed to operate in dual frequency bands, specifically the Medical Implanted Communication Service (MICS) (402-405 MHz) and the Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) (902-928 MHz). The compact size of the proposed antenna is 127 mm 3 (10 mm × 10 mm × 1.27 mm). The dual-band functionality is achieved through the integration of a shorting pin, a meandered resonator design, and the use of a superstrate. Performance evaluation indicates acceptable peak gains values, reaching -38.7 dBi at the lower band and -34.49 dBi in the higher band. Moreover, the performance of the antenna is verified by experiments using saline solution. The results demonstrate a substantial degree of correlation and consistency between the measurements and simulations.
