  3. Purpose and Contents • This document presents considerations of WPT (Wireless Power Transmission) carrier frequency for the implant devices • Contents • Advantages of WPT • What we consider about WPT for TG 6 Standardization? • What kind of frequency we could consider for WPT? • General Public Exposure limits to electromagnetic radiation • Future Works for Proposals of TG 6 Standardization with Wireless Power Transmission 3

  4. Energy Limitation of Implant Devices • It is difficult to change and charge the implant device’s battery rather than that of out-body device. • The life time of implant device for WBAN depends on the battery capacity. • Since shape and size of battery is constraint. E.g.) Capsule Endoscope 4

  5. Advantages of Wireless Power Transmission • We can extend the lifetime of implant device and be free to the power-constrained characteristics. • We can reduce the battery size in manufacturing the implant device. • So, minimizing the device size 5

  6. What we consider about WPT for TG 6 Standardization? • WPT Schemes • RF radiation • Inductive coupling • …ETC • We may not need to consider currently about what WPT schemes used. • But, we should check about WPT carrier frequency since it is related to Safety and Efficiency of Power Transmission. 6

  7. What kind of frequency we could consider for WPT? • 90kHz ~ 110kHz (a) • Traditional frequency band for inductive coupling • 400MHz (b) • Nearby MICS band • 2.4GHz (c) • ISM band 7

  8. What kind of frequency we could consider for WPT? • Selection of Frequency for Wireless Power Transmission • Safety • Probability of affecting to tissues in body could be increased in E-H field using high frequency • Efficiency of Power Transmission • High Power Transmission Rate could be achieved by carrier frequency and transmit power increasing SaftyTrade offEfficiency 8

  9. General Public Exposure limits to electromagnetic radiation (a) (b) (c) (a) (b) (c) • Exposure limits of E-field and H-field strength • Both of E-field and H-field cases, which have no limits (U.S. China, Canada, Japan) or highexposure limits (Korea, U.K.) in (a) band (yellow). • But, the limit levels are going down in (b) band (cyan). • The limit levels are higher than (b) band after (c) band (pink). 9

  10. General Public Exposure limits to electromagnetic radiation (a) (b) (c) • Exposure limits of Power density • The limits of power density level are not existed below 1MHz. • The limits are severest over 10MHz to 400MHz. • But, the limits are more increased after (c) band. 10

  11. Future Works for Proposals of TG 6 Standardization with Wireless Power Transmission • Proposals for Standardization • A set of WPT carrier frequencies according to applications of WBAN • Maximum WPT Tx. Power depends on set of WPT carrier frequencies • within Exposure limits of E-H field and Power density 11
