Popis: In this paper, the combination of Hilbert fractal geometry and the serpentine shape based microstrip implant antenna design proposed and optimized for wireless medical applications. The proposed antenna is miniaturized 5.5 × 5.8 × 1.7 (width × height × thickness mm3) and operates for dual band (MICS 402–405 MHz ile ISM 2.4–2.48GHz) operations. Superstrate is applied on top of the antenna to avoid a direct contact with the metallization and achieve biocompatibility. Implant antenna is simulated in three layer tissue (skin, fat and muscle) model. Simulation results show that the presented antenna has a reflection coefficient characteristic better than −10dB, omni-directional radiation pattern and acceptable specific absorption rate values for human body.
