Title Design and Simulation of Ultra High Energy Efficiency Radio for Wearable and Implant Biomedical Applications - II
Summary For continuous healthcare monitoring and biomedical mimic applications, wireless integrated micro-systems are preferred which merges the low-power microelectronics for control, data processing, and communication. Power-efficient circuit design enables small form factors/low-cost, as well as long-battery-life. Both digital and analog signal processing circuits are targeted. The wireless interfaces thrust undertakes basic and applied research in wireless interfaces for environmental and biomedical sensor devices, which includes CMOS and RF MEMS circuits, miniature antennas, sensor networking, and full system integration. The wireless thrust is developing wireless interfaces to neural probes, cochlear implants, and other biomedical sensor devices. The thrust is exploring techniques for short range, high energy efficiency in terms to transmit one bit using less power. There are various short range low power wireless technique emerged such as WBAN, Zigbee, MICS etc. The students will study various energy efficient radio techniques. Based on this, a novel low energy radio system will be provided for investigation. The system simulation in Matlab and circuit design in Cadence may be done.
