Abstract

In this paper, we design and simulate the 19 mm ื 16 mm ื 3.15 mm meander implantable antenna operating in industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) 2.4-2.5 GHz band. The resonant frequency and impedance matching are fine tuned to around 2.45 GHz by changing the height and position of antenna components. The comparisons of three proposed antennas are performed and then discussed. The antenna design with graphene patch shows the most outstanding results. The bandwidth and 3 dB-beamwidths increase significantly and the minimum average specific absorption rate (SAR) can be achieved. ฉ 2016 IEEE.
