This paper describes the design, fabrication, packaging, and performance characterization of a conformal helix antenna created on outside 10 mm × 30 capsule endoscope designed to operate at carrier frequency 433 MHz within human tissue. Wireless data transfer was established between integrated system an external receiver. The telemetry tested tissue phantom in vivo porcine models. Two different types transmission modes were tested. first mode, replicating normal operating conditions, used...
In this paper, two conformal antennas for wireless telemetry are proposed use in capsule endoscopy applications. Both simulated a simple one-layer body phantom using the CST software package. Measurements were carried out additively manufactured prototypes within material. Good agreement was obtained between measured and frequency responses.
In this paper, a conformai meander line antenna for wireless telemetry is proposed. The capsule simulated in free space and one-layer body phantom to determine its characteristics performance tissue environment using the CST software package. Free measurements were conducted prototype devices, results of which showed good agreement with those from simulations.
