ABSTRACT
Wireless network is the fast-growing technology. The world is moving towards the wireless technology and it is used each and everywhere. Wireless network is used in many ways and one of the applications is medical application. In wireless technology, Antennas play an important role in data transmission. Antennas are electronic eyes and ears of humans in the modern world. There are many applications of antenna in medical field. One of the applications is data transmission in wireless capsule endoscopy. Wireless capsule endoscopy is the advancement of wired endoscopy. Wireless capsule endoscopy is used to diagnose the problems in the gastro intestinal tract, stomach and intestines which cannot be identified from outer observation or through x-rays or any other tests. The doctors watch the travel of capsule in the display and diagnose the problems which will be easier for the treatment. The types of antennas in medical field are Ingestible antennas, On body wearable Antennas, Implantable antennas, Antenna for MRI, Microwave Imaging, Thermal Ablation. For wireless data transmission in wireless capsule endoscopy, Microstrip patch (MSP) antenna is designed using Duroid as substrate in the frequency of 2.45 GHz with efficiency of 88% and gain of 4.86 dB. Microstrip patch antenna is selected as it is smaller in size which is most important characteristic of capsule endoscopy. In MSP antenna, copper is used for ground and patch, Duroid is used as the dielectric medium for the substrate as it gives higher efficiency, higher gain and higher directivity.
