A miniaturized dual-band implantable antenna is presented for medical communications service (MICS) (402-405 MHz) and industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) (2.4-2.48 GHz) applications. Compared to traditional dual-band antennas, the proposed antenna is small in size and also covers the suitable wide bandwidth at both bands. The proposed antenna has dimensions of 16.5 16.5 2.54 mm. The simulated bandwidths are 12.6% at MICS and 5.7% at ISM, and the measured bandwidths are found to be 13% at MICS and 4.4% at ISM, respectively.
