Development of power recovery circuit for bio-implantable stimulator

This paper presents a modified design of low power recovery circuit in micro-system implanted device to stimulate the human nerve and muscle. The amplitude shift keying ASK was used to modulate data by using operating frequency 6.78MHz ISM industrial scientific medical band to be less invasive to tissue. The proposed system consists of an external part which has ASK modulator and class-E power amplifier with 94.5% efficiency. The internal part has half wave rectifier and voltage regulator to generate very stable 1.8VDC using 0.35um CMOS technology. The Orcad pspice 16.6 and MULTISIM 11 software were used to simulate the design of power recovery and class-E power amplifier respectively. The regulated voltage utilised to power the sub-electronic device implanted inside human body with very stable voltage even change implanted load resistance. The proposed system has 12.5%modulation index and low power consumption

This paper deals with designing a simple and efficient simultaneous inductive power and data transmission for transcutaneous Micro-system based on ASK modulation at 6,78 MHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band to avoid the tissue damage. The modified ASK modulator and inductive coupling link driven by efficient Class-E power amplifier with 94,5% efficiency and the coupling link of up to 78,29% of efficiency are introduced to transmit 500 Kbit/s of data with modulation index 12,5%, modulation rate 7,37%. The proposed design is simple, easy to implement and able to power the bio-implantable devices with DC V up to 5 V. The mathematical model is given and the system is designed and validated by professional OrCADPsPice 16,6 environment simulation using a standard AMS 0,35 μm MOS technology. In addition, for real-time simulation, the electronic workbench MULISIM 11 has been used to simulate the class-E power amplifier switching. This design is useful for cochlear implants, retinal implants and implantable micro-system stimulator

Optimization of spiral circular coils for bio-implantable micro-system stimulator at 6.78 MHz ISM band

Unique design of inductive coupling links is very essential in designing batteries bio-implantable devices. This paper, introduce a small size and efficient spiral circular coils (pancake) at 6.78 MHz to be used for bio-implantable devices. A mathematical model for the proposed coil is developed based on the number and width of turns for each coil to determine the outer and internal dimension by summation the width, number of the turns and spacing between them for each coil. The proposed coils are designed using commercial HFSS software. The results shows that the omnidirectional radiation patterns of the proposed coils is constant and stable and can be used for batteries bio-implantable devices

Efficient wireless power transmission to remote the sensor in restenosis coronary artery

In this study, the researchers have proposed an alternative technique for designing an asymmetric 4 coil-resonance coupling module based on the series-to-parallel topology at 27 MHz industrial scientific medical (ISM) band to avoid the tissue damage, for the constant monitoring of the in-stent restenosis coronary artery. This design consisted of 2 components, i.e., the external part that included 3 planar coils that were placed outside the body and an internal helical coil (stent) that was implanted into the coronary artery in the human tissue. This technique considered the output power and the transfer efficiency of the overall system, coil geometry like the number of coils per turn, and coil size. The results indicated that this design showed an 82% efficiency in the air if the transmission distance was maintained as 20 mm, which allowed the wireless power supply system to monitor the pressure within the coronary artery when the implanted load resistance was 400 Ω

Identification of distributed denial of services anomalies by using combination of entropy and sequential probabilities ratio test methods

One of the most dangerous kinds of attacks affecting computers is a distributed denial of services (DDoS) attack. The main goal of this attack is to bring the targeted machine down and make their services unavailable to legal users. This can be accomplished mainly by directing many machines to send a very large number of packets toward the specified machine to consume its resources and stop it from working. We implemented a method using Java based on entropy and sequential probabilities ratio test (ESPRT) methods to identify malicious flows and their switch interfaces that aid them in passing through. Entropy (E) is the first technique, and the sequential probabilities ratio test (SPRT) is the second technique. The entropy method alone compares its results with a certain threshold in order to make a decision. The accuracy and F-scores for entropy results thus changed when the threshold values changed. Using both entropy and SPRT removed the uncertainty associated with the entropy threshold. The false positive rate was also reduced when combining both techniques. Entropy-based detection methods divide incoming traffic into groups of traffic that have the same size. The size of these groups is determined by a parameter called window size. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) 1998, DARPA2000, and Canadian Institute for Cybersecurity (CIC-DDoS2019) databases were used to evaluate the implementation of this method. The metric of a confusion matrix was used to compare the ESPRT results with the results of other methods. The accuracy and f-scores for the DARPA 1998 dataset were 0.995 and 0.997, respectively, for the ESPRT method when the window size was set at 50 and 75 packets. The detection rate of ESPRT for the same dataset was 0.995 when the window size was set to 10 packets. The average accuracy for the DARPA 2000 dataset for ESPRT was 0.905, and the detection rate was 0.929. Finally, ESPRT was scalable to a multiple domain topology application

Health care monitoring and treatment for coronary artery diseases: challenges and issues

In-stent restenosis concerning the coronary artery refers to the blood clotting-caused re-narrowing of the blocked section of the artery, which is opened using a stent. The failure rate for stents is in the range of 10% to 15%, where they do not remain open, thereby leading to about 40% of the patients with stent implantations requiring repeat procedure within one year, despite increased risk factors and the administration of expensive medicines. Hence, today stent restenosis is a significant cause of deaths globally. Monitoring and treatment matter a lot when it comes to early diagnosis and treatment. A review of the present stent monitoring technology as well as the practical treatment for addressing stent restenosis was conducted. The problems and challenges associated with current stent monitoring technology were illustrated, along with its typical applications. Brief suggestions were given and the progress of stent implants was discussed. It was revealed that prime requisites are needed to achieve good quality implanted stent devices in terms of their size, reliability, etc. This review would positively prompt researchers to augment their efforts towards the expansion of healthcare systems. Lastly, the challenges and concerns associated with nurturing a healthcare system were deliberated with meaningful evaluations

Design and Analysis LCCL–LC Compensation for Electric Vehicle Systems

The shift, towards cars (EVs) plays a role in the global effort to combat climate change by reducing dependence on fossil fuels. An important part of this shift involves creating user EV charging systems. This study looks into how a connected coil design in a wireless power transfer system can help overcome challenges in EV charging when dealing with varying loads. We examine how well the system performs under load resistances that mimic states of charge and battery capacities in EVs. By assessing the stability of output voltage and efficiency of power transfer across these loads we focus on maintaining resonance within the system. Our findings show that the LCCL to LC WPT system maintains efficiency in power transfer (50-94) % when Coupling Coefficient change (0-0.9) at load resistance 3ꭥ and stable output voltage when facing changes in load resistance (1-4.5)ꭥ. This suggests that the system is resilient against load variations, which's crucial for real world EV charging situations. This research supports the potential of WPT systems as an efficient solution to meet the evolving demands of EV infrastructure leading towards increased adoption of EVs and a sustainable future, for transportation
