Telemetric data and energy management for continuous monitoring of cardiovascular parameters using implantable sensors

Project description
For the realization and application of implantable medical monitors, a telemetric module for wireless data and energy transmission is essentia. This telemetric module is flexibly designed to allow use with different mechanical and optical sensor types. Research aspects include biocompatibility, optimized power consumption, and reliable data transmission in real-time with high signal-to-noise ratio. In addition, the implantable system, consisting of a telemetric module and a sensor, requires miniaturization and hermetic sealing.
