Abstract This paper presents a compact antenna based on two different metamaterial resonators, the E-shape resonators and the interdigital resonators suitable for biomedical implant applications. The proposed antennas operate in the industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) bands in the frequency band of 2.4–2.5 GHz. The integration of metamaterial (MTM) in the design leading to the reduce size of these antennas and gaining enhancement. The overall size of the proposed antennas is\(8\times 7\times 1.27{\mathbf{m}\mathbf{m}}^{3}\). The implantable antennas contain two layers of the substrate; the lower layer comprises the MTM resonators and the upper, superstrate layer. To order to observe the exposure of electromagnetic energy to human tissues, the specific absorption rates (SARs) of the proposed antennas are also calculated in the layer model. The antennas are designed and simulated by the two software simulators CST and HFSS.

A novel coplanar waveguide fed Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band implantable crossed-type triangular slot antenna is proposed for biomedical applications. The antenna operates at the center frequency of 2450 MHz, which is in ISM band, to support GHz wideband communication for high-data rate implantable biomedical application. The size of the antenna is 78 mm3 (10 mm × 12 mm × 0.65 mm). The simulated and measured bandwidths are 7.9 and 8.2% at the resonant frequency of 2.45 GHz. The specific absorption rate distribution induced by the implantable antenna inside a human body tissue model is evaluated. The communication between the implanted antenna and external device is also examined. The proposed antenna has substantial merits such as miniaturization, lower return loss, better impedance matching, and high gain over other implanted antennas.

Abstract In this paper, an ultra-compact implantable antenna for biomedical applications is proposed. The proposed implanted meandered compact patch antenna is implanted inside the body at a depth of 2 mm. The proposed antenna was designed with Roger RO3003 (ɛr = 3) as substrate with an overall size of dimensions 5 × 5 × 0.26 mm3. The radiating element is a square patch antenna with different size rectangular slots and coaxial feeding. The proposed implantable antenna resonates at 2.45 GHz (from 2.26 to 2.72 GHz) frequency with a bandwidth of 460 MHz and a gain of −22.6 dB. The specific absorption rate has been considered for health care considerations, and the result is within the limits of the federal communication commission. The measured and simulated scattering parameters are compared, and good agreements are achieved. The proposed antenna is simulated and investigated for biomedical applications suitability.

Implantable antennas have recently been receiving substantial attention for medical diagnosis and treatment. In this paper, a coplanar waveguide-fed monopole antenna for industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band biomedical applications is proposed. The antenna has a simple structure is placed on human tissues such as muscle, fat, and skin. The designed antenna is made compatible for implantation by embedding it in an FR4 substrate. The proposed antenna is simulated using the method of moment's software IE3D by assuming the predetermined dielectric constant for the human muscle tissue, fat, and skin. The antenna operates in the frequency of ISM bands, 2.4–2.48 GHz. Simulated and measured gains attain −7.7 and −8 dBi in the frequency of 2.45 GHz. The radiation pattern, return loss, current distribution, and gain of these antennas were examined and characterized.

This work elucidated corrosion resistance of the electrodeposited MgO/calcium phosphate (Ca-P/MgO) films on titanium (Ti). The microstructure, phase composition, and corrosion resistance of the films were studied. Results revealed that The Ca-P/MgO composite coatings were rough and inhomogeneous, the upper layer was floral-like crystals or flakes agglomerates morphology, and the lower layer was needle-like crystals which were mutually cross linked. The coating was very dense, and the content of Mg was about 0.3 wt%. Potentiodynamic polarization test manifested that the Ca-P/MgO-coated surface exhibited superior corrosion resistance than the bare titanium.
