8 Schematic: Modeling audio signal power amplifier low noise amplifier Modulator (BB + RF) Demod. Analog architecture fixed LNA sensitivity Transmission losses depend on patient anatomy Variation of transmitted power Critical points: PA and Propagation Channel 8

9 Modeling Heterogeneous Framework Analog and RF simulation: Electrical using SPICE simulator Antennas and Channel: Electromagnetic simulator : Ansoft HFSS Battery Lifetime model on Simulink 9

10 Modeling Antenna and Channel Modeling Electromagnetic Simulation of the propagation channel Extraction of the equivalent circuit L e C e L r C r R loss-e R loss-r V receive=pl.v transmit R rad-e V transmit R rad-r 10

11 Modeling Simulation Issues Electromagnetic simulation: Using sophisticated head phantom: 1 week on a 2.8GHz Core2Duo 4GB RAM Using equivalent medium phantom: 1 day on a 2.8GHz Core2Duo 4GB RAM Analytical model: ε eq = ε skin. t + ε. t + ε skin t skin fat + t fat fat + t cart cart. t cart PL λm D = ( ).exp( 4πD δ eq ) 11

12 Modeling Simulation Issues Typical attenuation in transmission channel: 25 db LNA Sensitivity: - 55 dbm (internal design) Losses due to antennas efficencies: - 15 db Typical Transmitted Power: -15 dbm Channel Variation => Transmitted Power and Battery Lifetime Variations 12

13 Modeling Transmitter Modeling PA Tuning: V dd ref modulator matching out gnd Pout(dBm) V dd (V) Power consumption (µw) P out (µw) 13

14 Modeling Implementation Battery Lifetime estimation: Using Simulink (also implementable in any simulator) 14

15 Behavioral Modeling and System conference September 23-24, :00-10:30 AM Results 15

16 Results Battery Lifetime estimation according to channel variations : T skin (mm) T cart (mm) T fat (mm) Loss (db) Best Typical worst Pt (µw) P PA (µw) P tot (µw) Lifetime (days) Best Typical Worst

17 Results Battery Lifetime estimation according to other variations : Typical => 3% efficiency ; -20 db Pt (µw) P PA (µw) P tot (µw) Lifetime (days) Typical Antenna - 10 db Antenna - 6 db Antenna Efficiency x

18 Channel noise modeling and Worst Case simulation ASK modulation: P1/P0 = 0 dbm /- 10 dbm Noise Channel (WIFI interference ): 20 3m 18

19 Conclusion Channel losses are very important on biomedical transmission This model permit to: Know the transmitted power necessary Evaluate multiple modulation to find the better SNR Optimise the bitrate with digital modulation 19
