Abstract
Wireless power and data communication systems are the key components of modern neuroprosthetic devices. Traditionally, a single carrier is used to transfer energy and data signals to implant electronics, which restricts the optimum link performance. A dual-band power and data telemetry link is a multi-carrier link configuration to transmit power and data over independent carriers. Each link can be optimized independently to meet the design objective and constraints. In this work, a detailed discussion of carrier frequency selection for each link (power and data) is presented. Comparison between the low-frequency inductive link and high-frequency RF link for power and data is discussed. Using two practical design examples, it is shown that the selection of different configuration is application dependent, and care needs to be taken to select each configuration to optimize the telemetry link.
