Wireless Applications of Conformal Bioelectronics

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Stretchable Bioelectronics for Medical Devices and Systems

Part of the book series: Microsystems and Nanosystems ((MICRONANO))

Abstract

Conformal bioelectronics in flexible or stretchable format that make direct contact to the skin or tissues have contributed extensively to diverse clinical applications. Wireless modules in such minimally invasive forms have developed in parallel to extend the capabilities and to improve the quality of such bioelectronics, in assurances to offer safer and more convenient clinical practice. Such remote capabilities are facilitating significant advances in clinical medicine, by removing bulky energy storage devices and tangled electrical wires, and by offering cost-effective and continuous monitoring of the patients. This chapter provides a snapshot of current developments and challenges of wireless conformal bioelectronics with various examples of applications utilizing either wireless powering or communication system. The chapter begins with near-field wirelessly powered therapeutic devices owing to the simplicity of power transfer mechanism followed by far-field powering systems which require integration of numerous electrical components. In the later sections of the chapter, sensors in conformal format that transfer clinical data wirelessly are discussed and ends by reviewing the developments of wireless bioelectronics that utilize integrated circuits for advanced capabilities in clinical applications.
