Abstract
An implantable medical device comprises an electronics module comprising communication circuitry for at least one of transmitting communication signals to and receiving communication signals from an external communication device, and further comprising processing circuitry for at least one of processing sensed biological signals and generating stimulation signals for emission. An electrode arrangement serves for at least one of sensing said biological signals of a patient and emitting said stimulation signals. An electrical line extends in between the electronics module and the electrode arrangement, wherein the electrical line comprises a first line section, a second line section and a decoupling element, the first line section being electrically decoupled at RF frequencies from the second line section by the decoupling element and forming an antenna for at least one of transmitting and receiving said communication signals.
