Motivation

• Until now we are not very clear about the differences between BAN and PAN.– Implanted device is obviously not covered by

PAN



Implanted devices

www.newscientists.com



Implanted devices• Implantable sensors

– To passively collect signals from organ, blood, neuron etc

– To actively conduct a physical action and measure the response, e.g. blood vessel, mamma.

• Implantable action executer– To conduct inner operation, e.g. drug delivery,

stimulation etc

• Wireless functions– Real time communication– Positioning



In-out body communications

• Body/emergence information sensed by implantable sensors

• Biomedical identification and security

Magnetic belt

sensor



Stories • Measurement of blood pressure in the chamber

of heart• Epilepsy treating by electrical stimulation

– Implantable sensor under scalp detects and predicts epileptic seizures

• Drug intake and its effects on physiology and clinical condition of patient compliance chronically monitored by implantable sensors

• Artificial cochlear and retina



Out-in body communication

• Remote control, calibration and reprogram of implantable devices– Pacemaker, artificial

cochlear

gateway



In-in body communication

• Close loop control– It is difficult for two

implanted devices to communicate each other directly. A body surface forwarder is needed.

Implanted glucose sensor

Insulin pump

Body surfaceforwarder



Story

• Real time glucose monitor and insulin injection for people with diabetes



In-body positioning• Some body parameters should be explained as

per positions• Locate the affected area

– Implantable camera is expensive and power hungry– Gastric ulcer

Drug dispense in a particular area

Anchor node Outside the body



Stories

• Surgery navigation for low invasive cure– Surgically breast radiation therapy for early

stage of breast cancer

• Location based drug dose dispenser

• Invasive endoscope replacement

• Intro-body computer tomography

• Medical education using in-body GIS



System requirements

• Distance: <2m

• Multiple piconets

• Data rate– Low: <100Kbps– High: <2Mbps

• Implanted device lifetime: ~ years



Communication mechanisms

• Radio @ 403MHz and 2.4GHZ• Wireless medical telemetry frequency

• Magnetic communication @ 134~139KHz– Inductive link



Conclusions

• Medical application of implanted devices
