Design and Analysis of a Small Implantable Antenna for Blood Glucose Monitoring

摘要

In this paper, two miniaturized antennas of two different dimensions has been designed and analyzed for continuous monitoring of Blood Glucose Levels (BGL). The performance of these two antennas are analyzed numerically in free space operation. The results show that both the antennas work excellently in this scenario. These antennas operate at frequencies of 2.49 Giga Hertz and 2.94 Giga Hertz with gains 1.25 decibel and 2.03 decibel respectively. Owing to good performance, small size and buoyancy to many of the effects made by the human body will prove that the antenna will have a very good potential use in the future work of glucose monitoring.
