A flexible meandered loop antenna is proposed, designed and realised for small cylindrical implantable devices. This antenna covers the Medical Device Radiocommunications Service (MedRadio) and the 433-434 MHz industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) bands, and is probably the smallest reported flexible implantable antenna that covers these bands. This antenna has shown a robust performance in the presence of implant internal components and has a realised gain of - 28.4 dBi inside a model of a human upper arm.
