An antenna-in-package is proposed for a wireless ingestible capsule operated at ISM (2.4-2.48 GHz) band and also experimentally tested in a system level. The proposed antenna is designed for data transmission between the ingestible capsule and a smart phone using Bluetooth. A modified planar inverte...
