A medical system comprising a first medical device, a second medical device, and a computer. The first medical device is configured to be placed beneath the dermis. The first medical device comprises an enclosure comprising non-electrically conductive material. A cap couples to the enclosure and is configured to seal the enclosure. The enclosure houses electronic circuitry configured to measure one or more parameter or provide a therapy. The cap couples to the ground of the electronic circuitry. The first medical device includes a dual band antenna. A first antenna is configured to operate within a first frequency band below 1 gigahertz. The second antenna is configured to operate at a frequency above 1 gigahertz. The second medical device is configured to transmit a radio frequency signal to the first medical device. The first medical device is configured to harvest the energy received from the radio frequency signal to enable the electronic circuitry and perform at least one task. |
