Wireless power transfer is a method for energizing future implantable medical electronics. In this study, a metasurface-based near-field magnetic wireless power transfer system for deep implants is presented, and electromagnetic safety parameters, including field distributions, specific absorption rate (SAR), and temperature variations, are evaluated. The power transfer is modeled for a receiver implant at a distance of 8.5 cm from the designed metasurface. Based on the results, a maximum localized SAR of 0.072 mW/kg is achieved when the efficiency is 1.62%. Moreover, continuous power transfer shows that the local tissue temperature rises by less than 1.1 degrees Celsius.
To achieve the desired coverage and capacity levels, future terahertz (THz) wireless systems are envisioned to utilize extremely large antenna arrays. At THz frequencies, the combination of short wavelengths and large array apertures often makes many of the conventional far-field…
Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) have revolutionized neuroscience applications, from motor rehabilitation to neuroergonomics. Traditional implantable BCIs with invasive microelectrode arrays pose challenges, notably the need for wired connections and inherent implantation risks.…
Near-field localization has attracted significant attention in recent years due to the move toward higher frequencies and extremely large aperture arrays, which expand the near-field region and bring many sources into it. This implies that antenna arrays can be used to localize n…
Extremely large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) is crucial for next-generation communication systems. In practice, the deployment of non-square uniform planar arrays (UPAs) fundamentally alters wavefront characteristics and induces anisotropic beamfocusing capabili…
Near-field integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) can deliver the high spatial resolution and transmission capability with the shared spectrum and hardware. Due to the partial overlap between communication scatterers and radar targets, the sensing information can provide val…
