Description

As the agency reported it.

Activities
The project will take place at the bountenna laboratory of bogazici university in turkey. The following activities will be performed: 1) design an implant antenna for brain computer interface operating in the ultra-wideband frequency range. The antenna is aimed to achieve both large bandwidth and high radiation performance.2) antenna optimization method by using a a) one-layer numerical skull phantom, b) multi-layer phantom model consisting of human average, skull, and brain average phantoms, c) realistic human head simulation with 2 MM resolution obtained from the ansys human body library.3) antenna prototype: the antenna will be fabricated on a 3D-printed substrate.4) test and verification of the antenna using (a) liquid, (b) GEL, and (c) flexi solid phantoms.
Expected outcomes
An ansys hfss-based model of a subcutaneous antenna for brain computer interface operating with the unlicensed ultra-wideband frequency spectrum as well as its prototype will be available as the result of this project. The results of this research will be published in peer-reviewed conferences and journals. Therefore, other researchers and general scientific community in this area will have the opportunity to benefit from the findings of the proposed research.
Intended beneficiaries
The outcome of this proposal will provide a custom-designed subcutaneous antenna for brain computer interface (BCI) applications. These types of antennas complement the research taking place under the IOT-health program at NIST and enables ITL scientists to study wireless signal propagation and channel characterization in BCI using the enhanced computational body model at ITL. In the long run, this research will contribute to the scientific community who are working on the efficient implementation of a wireless BCI communication link; and therefore, enabling various innovative applications in the future.
Subrecipient activities
