Abstract:
An implantable medical device can include a device housing including a circuitry module and a header including a header core defining a bore configured to receive a distal end of a lead, an antenna, and a header shell disposed around the header core and the antenna. The antenna can be a closed loop antenna and arranged such that the antenna is positioned within two planes to maximize the area within the closed loop to increase the radiation characteristics of the antenna.
