Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research is aimed at power transmission to a human body for an implantable medical device. For power transmission to the capsule endoscope, the 433 MHz band used for image transmission is excellent. We found that muscle, small intestine and fat have a great influence on power transmission compared to other tissues, and those organizations are indispensable for simulating human abdomen. We proposed the in-body antenna using the flexible board and obtained the desired characteristics.
For stationary sensors implanted subcutaneously, we designed and experimented at 5.8 GHz. As a result, it was confirmed that even if we comply with the human body protection guidelines, electric power that can drive the microcomputer can be transmitted.
