Abstract :
Body-centric wireless communications (BCWCs) using wearable or implantable wireless devices are received an increasing amount of attention due to many applications such as medical care system, identification system, smart home and personal entertainment. In this paper, we will introduce an UHF band (0.95 GHz) implantable antenna and a novel dual-mode small antenna for on-body (10 MHz) and off-body (2.45 GHz) communications for BCWCs.
