Healthcare of the future will rely on lots of sensor devices especially long term monitoring sensors. In order to gain acceptance by the patients these devices have to be completely imperceptible and maintenance free. A solution to these requirements is a remote powered implantable sensor system. One of the biggest challenges of such systems is the power supply. Ideal sensor systems do not require any kind of battery for reliable operation. Instead they harvest the energy from the electromagnetic field of the interrogating device. In this talk a possible solution to this problem will be presented. The sensor system is based on an integrated circuit, which consists of a backscattering transceiver and an ultra-low-power analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for sensor data acquisition. With its power consumption of less than 10 μν incl. the ADC, it is possible to harvest the energy from the electromagnetic field and supply the complete ASIC.

This paper presents a new methodology of an Over-the-Air (OTA) testing using an arm-swinging dynamic phantom applied to wireless Body Area Network (BAN) systems. The phantom has unique features, in that swinging of the right and left arms and the direction and speed of swing can be controlled independently, leading to excellent capability for replicating the variety of natural walking and running styles seen in the average human. Using the phantom, we have developed a spatial fading emulator to make the performance assessment of a BAN radio module. In this paper, the configuration of the developed fading emulator with a dynamic phantom used for BAN-OTA Testing is shown. We also present on-body multipath characterization of BAN radios. Particular emphasis is placed on the evaluation of K-factor in indoor environments. It is revealed that the K-factor changes mainly due to the variations in the direct wave between two antennas caused by the shadowing effects of the human body.

Human body communication (HBC) is an emerging communication technique for wireless body area networks, which has recently been included in IEEE802.15.6 standard. The HBC transmitter uses the frequency selective digital transmission (FSDT) scheme, where Walsh code are used to spread the information bits. The data rate of this system is limited to 1.3125 Mbps, due to the limited set of spreading codes available for use under the transmission mask of IEEE802.15.6. In this paper, we present a code stacking method that effectively doubles the data rate using the same set of Walsh code. The performance of the proposed amplitude modulated FSDT scheme depends on the effectiveness of the system to reduce the effect of inter-symbol interference (ISI). Two methods for minimizing the effect of ISI are presented in this paper. Comparing to the FSDT scheme, doubling the data rate resulted in signal to noise ratio degradation of 1 dB.

Metamaterials have been proved very useful for their high potential in guiding and manipulating of near fields. A theoretically revealed effect of the significant enhancement of evanescent harmonics inside a wire metamaterial slab is experimentally verified in the microwave frequency range. The phenomenon originates from resonant pumping of standing waves into which evanescent waves are converted inside the slab. We find a good agreement between experimental data, numerical simulations and theory. Also some metamaterials applications for magnetic resonance imaging system are viewed.

An innovative and sensitive plasma probe suitable for the supervision and control of low-temperature plasma sterilization processes is presented in this contribution. For heat or chemical sensitive materials, plasmas are an indispensable tool regarding the sterilization of surgery instruments, for example. The presented Multipole Resonance Probe (MRP) allows for the simultaneous determination of plasma density, plasma temperature, and collision frequency by a simple and fast evaluation of its frequency response. Fed by an rf-signal, the MRP yields sensitive and local measurements for the determination of lowest fluctuations and for the application of a sensor network, respectively. With a minimal distance of 3 cm between two probes, the MRP can be deployed effectively as sensor network inside the plasma for the supervision of its stability and homogeneity. Based on 3D-electromagnetic field simulations the advantages of the MRP are discussed in detail. Compared to a Langmuir probe, measurements in a Double Inductive Coupled Plasma (DICP) show the suitability of the MRP inside an argon plasma.

This paper presents a linearized Doherty power amplifier (PA) operating over 100 MHz instantaneous bandwidth at 3.5 GHz. To maintain high efficiency at large back-off output power and achieve improved load modulation, the Doherty PA is designed by using unequal sized GaN devices. An uneven power divider is also utilized to deliver more input power to the peaking amplifier. Experimental results show that, for a 100 MHz modulated signal, the Doherty PA can achieve the efficiency of 42% at about 9 dB back-off output power of 39.5 dBm. The adjacent channel leakage ratio is about -25 dBc and can be improved to about -47 dBc by using digital pre-distortion technique.

A near-endfire, artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) backed wearable antenna is proposed in this paper for wireless body area networks operating in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. The bidirectional-endfire radiation pattern of Yagi-Uda latex antenna is changed to off-axis near-endfire radiation using an AMC reflector also printed on latex. The antenna is separated from upper AMC surface using flexible Styrofoam of thickness 0.044λo at 2.4 GHz for best compromise between keeping the antenna structure low-profile and achieving an off-axis beam tilt radiation of ~74° towards end-fire direction. 0° reflection phase AMC surface is proposed to reduce downward radiations and consequently improve the antenna tolerance to positioning on the human body, and reduce the specific absorption rate (SAR) level for 2.4 GHz frequency band gap. Antenna performance in terms of return loss, radiation efficiency, extent of frequency detuning, gain and SAR level are studied for free space as well as CST MWS tissue-equivalent voxel model for proposed antenna design. The Yagi-Uda antenna backed with AMC reflector demonstrates the measured return loss bandwidth of 40 MHz (2.43-2.47 GHz) and gain of -0.2 dBi in endfire direction with improved on-body radiation efficiency of 74.82 % and reduced peak SAR level of 1.24 W/kg for 10 g tissue for the compact overall flexible latex antenna volume of 0.4λo × 0.4λo × 0.076λo at 2.4 GHz.

Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) has emerged as a powerful technique for kinds of application, such as gas sensor, on-chip manipulation of microparticles or biological cells. In this paper, we present a numerical simulation and experimental study of standing surface acoustic wave (SSAW) induced acoustophoresis to assemble the particle samples in a microchannel. The simulation of the SAW is implemented by coupling the Maxwell equation and Newton equation. Once the acoustic wave along the piezosubstrate surface is obtained, the acoustophoresis force induced by surface standing acoustic wave (SSAW) is able to be derived. The SSAW generated by two parallel interdigital transducers (IDTs) which are excited by the radio frequency signal induce the acoustic radiation force to propel particles toward the pressure node. The assembling time also can be tunable by controlling the applied RF power. The numerical model and the experiment result can provide the critical guidance for the design of focusing component by SSAW which can significantly benefit the development of future on-chip flow cytometry.
