Abstract

Abstract When power is to be transferred to a mm-sized \gls{imd}, located multiple cm deep inside the human body, the main goal is often to maximize the received power, within the applicable \gls{sar} limits. It has been shown that, for equivalent homogeneous biological tissue, there is little difference between the received power using \gls{wpt} at (sub-)GHz frequencies compared to low MHz frequencies. However, it remains unclear whether the introduction of additional tissue layers, thus more accurately approximating the real environment, changes the optimal frequency for maximum received power. This paper presents an analytical model that can be used to calculate the \gls{em} fields, \gls{sar}, received power, and \gls{pte} in a planarly layered environment, consisting of an arbitrary number of layers with arbitrary thicknesses and arbitrary dielectric properties. The model is first validated by comparing it to CST Studio Suite\textregistered. It is then used to determine the optimal frequency for \gls{wpt} to a mm-sized implant, located multiple cm deep inside the human body. The optimal frequency is 10 kHz, and the received power is approximately constant up to 300 kHz. The same holds for the \gls{pte}.

Using this model, a hybrid method of moments (MoM) scheme is derived to handle the full MoM geometries including finite-sized and curved glass antenna structures. This scheme is validated by comparison of the measured and simulated electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) characteristics of the special simplified models and a full vehicle model with a realistic rear window glass antenna. {\textcopyright} 2010 IEEE.

Electrical stimuli applied to the nerve produced localized visual sensations that were broadly distributed throughout the visual field and could be varied by changing the stimulating conditions. These results demonstrate the potential for constructing a visual prosthesis, based on electrical stimulation of the optic nerve, for blind subjects who have intact retinal ganglion cells.

With deep seated implants, the possible locations available for application increases to almost the entire body. But, this advantage of applicability is severely limited as the power delivered to the micro implants by MF-WPT is very low -in the range of few 100W. Yet, the mid-field operations have higher efficiency in miniaturized weakly coupled coil implants compared to traditional near-field system. So, with improvement in certain aspects, MF-WPT is expected to play a vital role in biomedical field. For the same reason this paper focuses on analyses of literature available in various aspects of MF-WPT, its challenges, drawbacks and future scope of the scheme in medical field.

London, Energy harvesting.,Multi-tone signal,Propagation channel,Waveform optimization,Wireless power transmission, Energy harvesting.,Multi-tone signal,Propagation channel,Waveform optimization,Wireless power transmission, Wireless Power Week, In this paper, the authors present an original solution to maximize the DC power collected in the case of a wireless power transfer (WPT) scenario. Using state-space model representation, the WPT System is considered as a feedback approach in order to maximize the amount of harvested energy. To do this, a global simulation is performed to show the importance of taking into account the propagation channel and the rectifier circuit aspects in the case of optimizing the waveform to increase the harvested energy. By using an optimized multisine signal with zero phase as the excitation, taking into account the characteristics of the channel and the physical contributions of the rectifier, we managed to obtain better output DC values compared to a single tone source or a multi-sine signal without optimization, with the same average power input.
