Abstract

We present an intra-body-power-transfer (IBPT) system energized by an electromagnetic (EM) energy harvester (EH). The proposed maximum-power-point-tracking (MPPT) method for EMEH offers simple implementation and fast MPPT response (or tracking) time. Also, maximum-resonant-power-tracking (MRPT) is employed for the IBPT transmitter (TX) to track the optimal resonance frequency, which varies by the environment. A demonstration with a shoe-mounted wearable node with the proposed EMEH and IBPT TX validates the proposed whole IBPT system.
