Novel Body Matched Millimeter-Wave Sandwiched Antenna for Advanced Medical Communications

This paper presents a novel high-performance body matched antenna for millimeter-wave biomedical applications. Designed for the 60GHz band, the proposed antenna has 34.5 GHz wide impedance bandwidth and a compact size of 3.5 × 3 × 1 mm
³
. Placed on a human body phantom, the proposed sandwiched antenna exhibits good performance in terms of bandwidth, gain, and radiation pattern, making it a good candidate for biomedical applications. Furthermore, its stable radiation pattern makes it suitable for reliable wireless communications.
