Intellectual Merit:In this seed project, we will1) prove the feasibility and realize a new class of microfabricated three-dimensional inductive coils for telemetry devices used in biomedical applications;2) develop microantennas operating in the microwave frequency range for high data transmission rate implantable systems.We will investigate several unique approaches to create the desired structures for low-frequencytelemetry links (coils) and dual frequency power/data telemetry links (coils and microantennas). These approaches will require both numerical investigation of the coils/antennas and experimental validation of the designed devices.Broader Impact:The proposed activity is the result of an interdisciplinary collaboration betweenbioelectromagnetics and solid-state researchers. This activity will have an immediate impact on our students that will be exposed to diverse disciplines to develop the next generations' biomedical systems. We anticipate that the proposed SGER will initiate a larger program at NCSU that will use the combined strengths in the bioelectromagnetics and solid-state research areas toward the realization of a new generation of biomedical electronics devices.

智力优势：在这个种子项目中，我们将1)证明可行性并实现一种用于生物医学应用的遥测设备的新型微制造三维感应线圈；2)开发工作在微波频率范围内的微天线，用于高数据传输速率的植入式系统。我们将研究几种独特的方法来创建低频遥测链路（线圈）和双频电源/数据遥测链路（线圈和微天线）所需的结构。这些方法将需要线圈/天线的数值研究和设计设备的实验验证。更广泛的影响：拟议的活动是生物电磁学和固态研究人员跨学科合作的结果。这项活动将对我们的学生产生直接的影响，他们将接触到不同的学科，以开发下一代的生物医学系统。我们预计，拟议的SGER将在NCSU启动一个更大的项目，将利用生物电磁学和固态研究领域的综合优势，实现新一代生物医学电子设备。
