WIRELESS INDUCTIVE TRANSFER OF POWER AND DATA

  • Chapter
Analog Circuit Design

Abstract

This text discusses the possibilities when designing a wireless inductive link that works both as an energy link, to power up a remote device, as well as a communication link to retrieve data and to write data to the same remote device, using the same set of inductive coils. Datatransmission from the measurement system to a base unit is achieved by applying absorption modulation, datatransmission to the measurement system by applying amplitude modulation. Some basic formulae and design considerations are given, and a full example applicable to an implantable device is given.
