Abstract: In current scenario, rectangular patch antenna is used for applications such as Mobile telecommunications, Medical telemetry, Satellite communication, AM-FM broadcasting etc. Medical telemetry is a measurement at a distance from the subject; usually the measurable evidence of phenomena under investigation is transmitted by radio signals. The drawbacks of the existing methods are high cost of fabrication due to the usage of non-common substrates and the usage of frequencies which are not in wireless communication bands. A new design of rectangular patch antenna with parallel slot is proposed for overcoming this issue. The rectangular patch antenna having length 47.63mm and width 37.9mm and thickness 1.6mm with FR4 substrate and operating frequency is 2.4 GHz for medical telemetry application in ISM band. The proposed antenna provides good return loss and achieves better gain. The simulation of rectangular microstrip patch antenna is analyzed using Ansoft/Ansys HFSS.
