Synopsis: 

This seminar focuses on the wide range of wireless power transfer (WPT) techniques investigated over the last two decades to improve power crisis situation of multi-functional biomedical implantable devices (BIDs). Designing a high efficiency WPT system is always challenging due to the separation distance between the transmitter and receiver coils and the miniaturized size requirement of the receiver inside human body. Further, tissue safety specification is a major constraint and concern to design such systems. Therefore, the WPT methods, such as near field capacitive and inductively coupled, mid-field, far-field, acoustic and optical coupling are studied and presented along with their link and system design, optimization, possible applications and design challenges for BIDs.
