With the increasing demand for wireless and minimally invasive medical devices, there is a need for antennas that can reliably transmit and receive data within the human body. The antenna presented in this study functions within the Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) frequency band, meeting all necessary regulations with a size of 10×10×1.6 mm$^3$. FEM-based HFSS software has been used for simulation and using Roger 3010 substrate with relative permittivity of 10.2. We carefully selected materials and used optimization techniques to create a compact design without sacrificing performance. To overcome challenges from the body's dispersion and losses, we thoroughly evaluated the antenna's electromagnetic properties through simulations and tests. The results show outstanding performance in gain, radiation pattern, and impedance matching, making it ideal for various medical implant applications. Moreover, our design proves to be robust against detuning effects caused by tissue interactions, ensuring dependable communication within the target frequency range. By addressing the size and efficiency constraints of medical implant antennas, our work advances wireless biomedical devices, leading to improved healthcare monitoring and therapeutic solutions with enhanced patient comfort.
