This work explored the antenna design choices for wireless MRI, specifically for clock synchronization and scanner state detection. Antennas at 1.6GHz for the clock signal, and 3.5GHz for Q-spoil signal were tested for transmit and receive performance. Reflectors were constructed and improvements in antenna path loss were observed. A better understanding of these antennas is necessary to help satisfy link budget requirements.
