A noninvasive method of stimulating the nerve by applying radiofrequency has been presented. The design is based on the concept of magnetic resonance based power transfer. A comparison between electric field on the nerve at the frequency of 450-550 KHz with vacuum placed under a human tissue and the case where it is replaced with a resonant and non-resonant structure was analysed. Calculations were performed by using Ansoft HFSS. Power savings of 7.15% was observed when resonant structures were used, compared to vacuum. Theoretical calculation and simulation of fields were presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
