Abstract

The next generation of Micro Active Implantable Medical Devices (M-AIMD) are small (< 1 cc), wireless, as well as battery-less. They are located in different parts of the body ranging from brain computer interface electrode arrays (e.g., Blackrock Neurotech Utah Array) to multi-chamber cardiac pacemakers (e.g., Abbott dual chamber Nanostim device). These devices require efficient charging and powering solutions that are very challenging to design. Such solutions require the careful balancing of multiple design parameters such as size, separation distance, orientation, and regulatory limits for emission and tissue safety. In this article, we introduce unique optimisation metrics for designing efficient transmit and receive coils for near-field magnetics-based charging solutions. We elaborate on how the metrics need to be altered depending on the regulatory limits. We discuss the impact of body tissue loading on transmit and receive coil performance using circuit analysis. We introduce a novel “segmented” transmit coil arrangement. We discuss the physics of segmentation, and we build a full wave simulation model, with practical design procedure, which is verified with measurements. Finally, we compare the near fields with and without tissue loading to show that segmented coils offer significant improvement to the performance and robustness of a wireless power transfer system.
