A mixed-signal CMOS circuit design of a smart RF ID tag for heartbeat signal extraction is proposed. This smart RF ID tag has been under development for monitoring heartbeat signals from an electrocardiogram (ECG) microsensor and/or a pressure microsensor implanted in a transgenic animal. This tag is remotely powered by RF electromagnetic induction. The signal packet consisting of an identification code of 64 bits in length and a spike-pulse sequence of heartbeat signals are transmitted to a reader system using BASK modulation.
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.
