Abstract
A spiral meandered antenna is designed, simulated and presented in this research paper. After a keen literature survey it has found that the operating range for the biomedical application is 0.4 to 1.5GHz. In this range 0.402 to 0.405GHz is fixed for the medical implant and 1 to 1.5GHz is the range for breast cancer treatment. Hyperthermia is a major technique to cure breast cancer; it is used to enhance the temperature of cancerous cell with the help of microstrip antennas. Meandered antenna is small in size and having a better return loss than other comparative microstrip antennas.
