Abstract

This study explores the system design of an RF transmitter used to power next-generation wireless implantable medical devices. A human-scale, battery powered, proof-of-concept device delivers a 433 MHz signal at ~30 dBm in ~500 µs/s pulses to a transmitter (Tx) coil. The novel device successfully emulates the bulky function generators and power amplifiers which are often used for powering implantable devices.
