    Abstract

    Translating impedance biosensors to the vasculature of a human body has several obstacles. In order to progress to in vivo experiments, one must address these early to show proof of concept. This paper presents the data from our implant-ready sensor to show how it functions in a pseudo-implanted environment. To construct a self-reporting impedance measuring platform for vascular implants, a wireless power, and data system is presented. Notably, the implementation of the Radio Frequency (RF) energy harvesting technique contributes to the powering up of self-reported battery-free vascular implants. To process the harvested RF power to usable Direct current (DC) power, a high-efficiency and high-voltage output rectifying circuit dedicated to wireless charging of vascular implants at a high operation frequency is proposed and analyzed.
