Section 3

Refer to Table 1 and figure 2 of:

N.H.Ramil, H Othman, D.K. Hamzah, " Design of a CPW Fed

Implantable Antenna at frequency 2.4 GHz for Wireless Implantable

Body Area Network", 2020 IOP Conf Ser: Material Science and

Engineering.

(a) Use the Ansys HFSS software to investigate the performance of

the proposed antenna in free space. Report any significant

difference(s) between your results and those published in the paper.

Your focus should be on the reflection coefficient. (Your response,

which is to be limited to 5 sentences, should be supported by results

from your simulation)

(b) Use the Ansys HFSS software to investigate the performance of

the proposed antenna when implanted in the human body. Include

in your model a reasonably sized biological phantom. Compare your

findings with those of part(a). Your focus should be on the

reflection coefficient. (Your response, which is to be limited to 5

sentences, should be supported by results from your simulation and

relevant information from the above paper)

(c) In your opinion, what is the main reason for the discrepancies you

identified in part (a). How would you use Ansys HFSS to support your

opinion. (Your response should be limited to 5 sentences plus

possibly a diagram or table. You do not have to perform any

simulation for this part.)
