I. INTRODUCTION
Along with the changing times and
the increasing development of
telecommunication science which has
greatly influenced aspects of human life,
one of which is in the field of health,
especially for telemedicine, which has
recently been frequently discussed in the
health sector. With the increasing
development of telemedicine applications
that use wireless or wireless systems
because they are considered more practical
and do not require a cable to be attached to
the human body. To establish this
telemedicine application with wireless
technology that can be attached to any part
of the body, of course, an adequate
antenna is needed so that users can still
feel comfortable using it.
Seeing the increasing world
population, the world government is
required to be able to create a telemedicine
application that can meet current human
problems in the health sector. With this
telemedicine application, it is hoped that it
can become a solution that can be expected
and makes it easier to overcome the
current distribution of health that is
happening [1–3]. short microstrip patch

with the gain value on the first and
second antennas at a frequency of 2.45
of 6.262 dB and 6.211 Db. while the
gain value at a frequency of 5.85 GHz
is 3.866 dB and 1.228 dB with a
unidirectional radiation pattern.
2. VSWR results in the simulation on the
first and second antennas at a
