Abstract :
Biomedical industry is in continuous growth in the last few years. This paper presents new compact printed antennas for medical applications. Low profile compact antennas are useful in the development of human biomedical systems. Design considerations, computational results and measured results of several wideband microstrip antennas with high efficiency for medical applications are presented in this paper. Environment effects on the antennas electrical performance are presented.
