Subject matter such as a method or apparatus can include an implantable antenna assembly, comprising a dielectric shell including first and second substantially parallel outer face portions, and a third outer face portion extending between the first and second portions, a spiral conductor extending along the first, second, and third portions on a surface of the dielectric shell. The dielectric shell and spiral conductor can be configured to be mechanically attached to a dielectric compartment, such as configured to be coupled to a housing of an implantable medical device. In an example, the implantable antenna assembly is configured to be electrically coupled to an implantable telemetry circuit configured to wirelessly transfer information electromagnetically using the implantable telemetry antenna, such as included as a portion of an implantable medical device.

Modular antenna for implantable medical device

In an example, an apparatus can include an implantable medical device comprising a housing, an implantable telemetry circuit carried within the housing, a dielectric compartment mechanically coupled to the housing, the dielectric compartment including first and second substantially parallel face portions and a third face portion extending between the first and second face portions, and an implantable telemetry antenna, located at least partially within the dielectric compartment. The implantable telemetry circuit can be electrically coupled to the implantable telemetry antenna and configured to wirelessly transfer information electromagnetically using the implantable telemetry antenna. In an example the implantable telemetry antenna comprises a spiral conductor portion extending along the first, second, and third face portions. In an example the spiral conductor includes a cross section having a lateral width that can be greater than a sidewall height of the cross section.

Folded antennas for implantable medical devices

A variable operational mode transceiver device formed with an integrated circuit having a semiconductor material substrate supporting a feedback oscillator having a signal power divider electrically coupled to said feedback oscillator output, and a signal frequency multiplier electrically coupled to said signal power divider. A signal mixer has a pair of inputs of which one is electrically coupled to that remaining one of said pair of outputs of said signal power divider.

Monolithic integrated transceiver

A feedback oscillator device formed with an integrated circuit having a semiconductor material substrate on a ground plane. The circuit has an amplifier having an input and an output is provided at least in part on said semiconductor material substrate. A directional coupler is used to couple the amplifier output signal to the amplifier input through a parallel separated transmission lines transfer system and a capacitor such as a varactor. The substrate can be of gallium arsenide.
