PROJECT TITLE :

Feasibility of Energy-Autonomous Wireless Microsensors for Biomedical Applications: Powering and Communication

ABSTRACT:

During this review, biomedical-connected wireless miniature devices like implantable medical devices, neural prostheses, embedded neural systems, and body space network systems are investigated and categorized. The two main subsystems of such designs, the RF subsystem and also the energy source subsystem, are studied thoroughly. Completely different application categories are considered separately, focusing on their specific information rate and size characteristics. Conjointly, the energy consumption of state-of-the-art communication practices is compared to the energy that can be generated by current energy scavenging devices, highlighting gaps and opportunities. The RF subsystem is assessed, and the acceptable design for every category of applications is highlighted. Finally, a replacement figure of merit appropriate for wireless biomedical applications is introduced to measure the performance of these devices and assist the designer in choosing the proper system for the specified application. This figure of advantage can effectively fill the gap of a a lot of needed technique for comparing completely different techniques in simulation stage before a final style is chosen for implementation.
