Abstract
Antennas are used in biomedical applications particularly for EM Radiation energy therapy of different tumors. In this paper, a spiral planar antenna is to operate a MICS (Medical Implanted Communication Service) frequency range of 402–405 MHz. It is designed to implant inside the human body for the treatment of different tumors. The design is carried out using HFSS software. The antenna performance characteristics are analyzed using parameters like i/p impedance, reflection coefficient, return loss, 3D gain, and E-Field distribution. Finally, the prototype and validation are done and theoretical and measured results are compared.
