Abstract
We present a design methodology for implantable antennas patterned on a flexible substrate for electrocorticography. The antennas are designed for maximum link gain across the human skull to efficiently power the implant. Simulation results show that optimizing the transmission frequency together with antenna geometries can provide sufficient power and voltage to the implant.
