This paper examines the use of radiofrequency (RF) channels for hemodynamic monitoring in cardiac pacemakers. It analyzes RF signal variations between intracardiac transceivers in the right ventricle (RV) and right atrium (RA), as well as subcutaneous receivers, to determine their correlation with cardiac dynamics. The study shows that temporal RF signal variations closely align with cardiac rhythm, allowing for the estimation of parameters such as chamber volume, valve behavior, and pressure changes. These results underscore the potential of RF-based sensing as a novel method for real-time cardiac monitoring in pacemaker systems.
Integrated sensing and communications (ISAC), empowered by dynamic metasurface antennas (DMAs), has emerged as a promising paradigm for next-generation wireless networks. However, existing DMA-based designs commonly rely on the frequency-flat response model for DMA elements, whic…
Wearable ultrasound enables continuous monitoring of physiological processes such as muscle dynamics, bladder volume, and cardiovascular activity. Existing fully wearable ultra-low-power platforms are limited to shallow, low-channel A-mode sensing, while larger multi-mode systems…
