Abstract

Miniaturised biomedical implants, such as neural stimulators and leadless pacemakers are becoming increasingly popular. As of yet, access to a reliable power source has been one of the major obstacles towards creating miniature devices with extended functionalities. Batteries tend to take up 80% room while offering a limited lifespan. Moreover, transcutaneous energy transfer systems (TET) designed to deliver power to implants without a physical link require a receiving coil that requires a generous real estate. This research proposes a new transcutaneous energy transfer (TET) method to deliver power to miniaturised deeply implanted biomedical devices.
