摘要: A broadband UHF antenna for implanted central venous catheters (CVC) is designed, implemented, and properly characterized. According to the requirements, CVC (CVCA) low profile, surface integrated, 3-D conformal a 16 mm base radius, 10 upper high truncated cone. It operates at MedRadio band (401-406 MHz) implant communication ISM 2.45 GHz electronics wake up. prototype implementation including test-bed within phantom that representative of body introduced. The exhibits S11 <;-10 dB bands interest with behavior. measured gain -28.95 dBi in vertical -36.9 horizontal polarization -25.5 -19.9 GHz. corroborated by link characterization between an node external station. Base station antenna, sensitivity, transmitted power, path loss are independently introduced broken down budget read range estimate. This 18.95 m free space conditions. By using power saving mode GHz, it reduced estimate 1.88 m.
