Abstract


The conformal antenna consisting two loop elements is presented at 2.45 GHz industrial, scientific and medical band. The two elements are attached on the inner surface of the capsule, so that inner capsule space is saved to its maximum extent. Additionally, by orthogonally placing the two elements at bottom and side of the capsule, different polarization directions are achieved; therefore, resulting in good isolation without introducing additional decoupling structures. This system has the potential to provide real-time biological information from within the human body via a radio frequency link. Furthermore, communication link of the conformal antenna with outside dipole is evaluated, revealing reliable communication performance. The performance of the communication link between the implanted antenna and external half-wavelength dual-band dipole is also examined.
