Presents the introductory welcome message from the conference proceedings. May include the conference officers' congratulations to all involved with the conference event and publication of the proceedings record.
The present report is on the recent progress of the development of Magnetic Induction Heating (MIH) for treating tumors by electromagnetic energy, namely, hyperthermia or ablation. New concept of system design and new material usage are introduced in the recent published results. The theoretic concept, previous study in literature and constant challenge of MIH are reviewed and discussed. Some animal...
Currently, many researchers have been concerning with body-centric wireless communications systems (BWCS) since their numerous medical applications including in combination with low rate wireless personal area (LR-WPAN) technology for human physiological monitoring system. This paper proposes a novel wearable antenna that operates at 2.45 GHz for off-/on-body communication application. The proposed...
A low-energy 40MHz / 160MHz dual band full duplex body channel communication (BCC) transceiver and 13.56MHz R-C oscillator-based super-regenerative receiver are integrated in 65nm mixed mode CMOS process for both highspeed (HS) and low-speed (LS) biomedical applications. The body channel bandwidth is extended up to 200MHz, enabling energy efficient and wide bandwidth communication. The on-chip R-C...
In recent years, demands on electronic implantable medical devices (IMDs) are significantly increasing. It is quite challenging to design energy-efficient IMDs. IMDs requiring wireless connection have two types of communications, i.e., the sensor data transmission, and the command/control information exchange. The design considerations for wireless IMD transceiver is reviewed, and a dual-band/mode...
All textile antennas for self-monitoring biomedical applications are proposed All components of proposed antennas are made of textile materials. The felt material is used as an antenna substrate. The radiating elements are made by conductive fabric and threads. To analyze the body effect on the antenna performance, muscle-equivalent phantoms are used.
This paper presents a circularly polarized antenna on thin and flexible Denim substrate for Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band and Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) applications at 2.45 GHz. Copper tape is used as the conductive material on 1 mm thick Denim substrate. Circular polarization is achieved by introducing rectangular slot along diagonal axes at the center of the circular patch...
This paper presents a novel iterative non-breakdown rectifier topology which would practically solve the rectifier's early breakdown problem in multi-sine wireless power transmission (WPT) for biomedical application. The proposed rectifier holds an iterative topology which can extend the reverse breakdown voltage limitlessly with its forward threshold voltage remains. It keeps high conversion efficiency...
Wireless power delivery and telemetry are the key aspects of an implantable device that enables long-term operation which is otherwise limited by the factors like battery capacity (in battery operated systems), infections and pain (tethered systems). In this paper, we present our efficient wireless power delivery and reliable telemetry platform that enables a completely implantable muscle stimulator...
