Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) System Design for Freely-Moving Animals for Optogenetic Neuromulation Applications

Wireless power transfer (WPT) is currently the most efficient way for transmission of power from one port to another, that is popularly used in various applications.This technique can change the previous energy utilization methods in various applications such as electronic devices, implanted medical devices, electrical vehicles and so forth.It mainly helps overcome the limitations of short battery life, limited storage, heavy weight, and high cost of batteries.This paper is based on the design of a transmitter and a receiver to achieve wireless power transfer for applications like optogenetic stimulation in rodents. With inductive coupling, a very high efficiency can be achieved between the transmitting and receiving coils of an antenna at small distances. When the transmitter and receiver are strongly coupled and are working at their resonant frequencies, the range of efficient WPT can be extended. In this work, the simulations are performed in HFSS at a resonating frequency of 13.56 MHz.A 4-port transmitter and a single-port planar receiver model are developed in HFSS, and the simulations are performed to graph the S parameters with a separation distance of 4cm. A Wilkinson power divider is designed using ADS to split the power from the four ports of the transmitter. The design is simulated to compare the S21 at different positions on the TX.
