Abstract Details

, Master of Sciences, Case Western Reserve University, EECS - Electrical Engineering.
This work demonstrates a batteryless, implantable blood-flow sensor which uses wireless power transfer (WPT) for communication and powering implanted electronics. The WPT system uses a split-double helix antenna (DHA), enabling a cuff that can be slipped around a tubular structure in the body. The mutual inductance of the DHA was analytically modeled and validated for a range of DHA diameters. A radio-frequency identification (RFID) system was developed to enable WPT and data readout to an external transceiver. A sample rate of 12 Hz and reading distance of 3.5 cm was achieved. The implantable DHA system was developed to wrap around vessels of 3 to 8 mm and coupled to a strain-sensitive flexible pulsation sensor (FPS) consisting of a carbon black-silicone nanocomposite. The FPS strain changes during pulsatile flow were measured and wirelessly transmitted, enabling flow rate monitoring on a vascular phantom.
