In this paper, a single layer Coplanar Waveguide-fed microstrip patch antenna array is presented for biomedical applications. The proposed antenna array is realized on a transparent and flexible Polyethylene Terephthalate substrate, has 1x4 radiating elements and measures only 280 x 192 mm2. The antenna array resonates at 2.68 GHz and has a peak-simulated gain of 10 dBi. A prototype is also fabricated, and the conductive patterns are drawn using cost-efficient adhesive copper foils instead of conventional copper or silver nanoparticle ink. The corresponding measured results agree well with the simulated results. The proposed low profile and cost-efficient transmit antenna array has the potential for wearable born-worn applications, including wireless powering of implantable medical devices.
