Abstract
In this study, we present a scalp implantable miniaturized biocompatible antenna at the medical implant communication service (MICS) band (402-405 MHz). The antenna dimension is only 26.4 mm3 (11 mm × 8 mm × 0.3 mm) which is an electrically small antenna. It provides a monopole like radiation pattern with radiation efficiency of 1.9%, -10dB impedance band-width of 42MHz and gain of -42.21 dB. These results are achieved when it is implanted in skin tissue of a human head model at 5mm depth. To reduce simulation time, initially the antenna was placed in a skin tissue simulating box of 5mm implant depth. For simulation in skin tissue box, Ansoft's EM simulator HFSS and for human head implantation, SEMCAD X FDTD software was used.
在这项研究中,我们提出了一种医疗植入通信服务(MICS)频段(402-405 MHz)的头皮植入式微型生物相容性天线。天线尺寸仅为26.4 mm3 (11 mm × 8 mm × 0.3 mm),是一个电小型天线。它提供了一个类似单极子的辐射方向图,辐射效率为1.9%,阻抗带宽为42MHz,增益为-42.21 dB。这些结果是当它被植入人体头部模型的皮肤组织5mm深度时实现的。为了减少模拟时间,最初将天线放置在植入深度为5mm的皮肤组织模拟盒中。皮肤组织盒内仿真采用安软公司的电磁仿真器HFSS,头部植入采用SEMCAD X FDTD软件。
