Pretty-Small Implantable Dual-Band Antenna for the Radio Frequency Module of Advanced Smart Hemodialysis Arteriovenous Grafts
摘要
Implantable arteriovenous grafts (AVGs) are critical for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing hemodialysis, but complications such as restenosis, thrombosis, and infection limit their long-term function. This work presents a highly miniaturized dual-band implantable antenna for real-time biotelemetry and autonomous monitoring of AVGs. Operating at 1.4 GHz and 2.4 GHz, the antenna maintains stable performance within heterogeneous tissue environments. Its compact footprint of
