Cover Story: This paper presents a compact-sized wearable flexible monopole antenna designed for in-body and on-body communications at ISM and UWB frequency bands. This is the first flexible on-body antenna that has been presented for implant communications and which covers such a wide frequency band. Antenna evaluations were performed via electromagnetic simulations using CST Studio Suite simulation software, utilizing a tissue layer model for the abdominal tissues as well as an anatomical voxel model. Additionally, the antenna prototype was prepared, and measurements were carried out with a hand phantom as well as with a volunteer. View this paper
