Abstract
Within the biomedical framework, modern and miniaturized ASICs enable the development of anatomically-constrained applications such as smart contact lenses (SCLs). Recent works report lenses receiving power and communicating through inductive coupling links (ICLs). However, the efficiency of an ICL depends highly on alignment and distance between coils, thus encouraging the exploration of other techniques to power and communicate SCLs. Intra-body links (IBLs) emerge as an alternative to ICLs for wearable devices, with promising path-loss results reported in previous works. Here, we evaluate the feasibility of powering and communicating SCLs through an IBL.
