Popis: Implants like brain pacemakers or brain computer interfaces (BCI) fundamentally requires an improved and efficient wireless power distribution system. This work therefore presents a novel concept based on an intermediate resonator, which provides the opportunity to power multiple implants and to minimize furthermore the dimensions of the external power transmitter. Numerical computations specify requirements to the antenna configuration and a model show the electrical behavior. Finally, a prototype system presents an initial implementation, allowing the evaluation of the concept.
