Abstract :
In this paper we present the design, realization and measurements of a first prototype of a complete implantable device. The RF system, working over the medical implanted communication systems (MICS) bandwidth and composed of the antenna, the battery, the transceiver for the data communication and the insulation material, has been designed and realized in order to be integrated with an implanted glucose sensor.
