Implantable medical device microstrip telemetry antenna

摘要: A microstrip RF telemetry antenna is formed on or within the exterior surface of an implantable medical device housing that either a conductive metal non-conductive dielectric material. The electrically radiator patch layer laminated upon facing side substrate relatively constant thickness. ground plane opposite to extend parallel and at least coextensively with layer. coupled transceiver circuitry by feedthrough extending through layer, wall. If it may form over which are deposition other techniques. suitable material, interior thereof thereof, preferably be recessed cavity backed receives cavity. surfaces any exposed insulated radome
