Implantable Device Antenna
Have you ever wondered what type of antenna vendors put on an implantable device? The image on the right is an implantable antenna designed by Cynthia Furse of the University of Utah. Pretty cool. UPDATE: Dr Furse was kind enough to reply to my inquiry to say that the image represents the current density on a spiral microstrip patch antenna. She also included a paper she wrote on antenna design for pacemaker communications. Thanks!
