N2 - This paper discusses the antenna design considerations for intra-cortical proximity communication. The performances of microstrip patch and monopole antenna systems at 60 GHz have been compared. The monopole antenna system can potentially bring down the power required for brain-machine interface technology to micro-watt level. The receiving power can be significantly improved and meet the sensitivity level of the conventional receivers for successful communications. Moreover, the wave propagates along the skull surface has been studied.
