“…[671]. In addition to these in vitro laboratory and in silico modelling studies, instrumented prostheses with various sensors were developed [672]. For example, such a technique allowed the measurement of in-vivo friction and temperature rise, showing the effect of the surgical cup placement on the heating up of total joint hip replacements [673].…”

“…Although those provide microwatt-level power over a long time, biocompatibility and proper design are the major research challenges of those power source models. Wireless power transfer is considered a promising solution in the implantable antenna power system [ 104 ]. Optical charging, ultrasonic transducers, and inductive coupling are the key examples of wireless power transfer in the implant antenna system to transfer milli-watt level power in the system.…”

Implantable antennas are mandatory to transfer data from implants to the external world wirelessly. Smart implants can be used to monitor and diagnose the medical conditions of the patient. The dispersion of the dielectric constant of the tissues and variability of organ structures of the human body absorb most of the antenna radiation. Consequently, implanting an antenna inside the human body is a very challenging task. The design of the antenna is required to fulfill several conditions, such as miniaturization of the antenna dimension, biocompatibility, the satisfaction of the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), and efficient radiation characteristics. The asymmetric hostile human body environment makes implant antenna technology even more challenging. This paper aims to summarize the recent implantable antenna technologies for medical applications and highlight the major research challenges. Also, it highlights the required technology and the frequency band, and the factors that can affect the radio frequency propagation through human body tissue. It includes a demonstration of a parametric literature investigation of the implantable antennas developed. Furthermore, fabrication and implantation methods of the antenna inside the human body are summarized elaborately. This extensive summary of the medical implantable antenna technology will help in understanding the prospects and challenges of this technology.

“…In addition to the mentioned applications, SAW sensors have also been used for health monitoring and process monitoring [16]. In a variety of applications, including implants and other biomedical applications, there is a need for a sensor that can operate passively and wirelessly [17,18]. Zou et al [19] described a method for wirelessly querying surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors implanted in the major pulmonary artery, where surface acoustic wave systems are used to monitor pressure.…”

In this paper, a surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor for hip implant geometry was proposed for the application of total hip replacement. A two-port SAW device was numerically investigated for implementation with an operating frequency of 872 MHz that can be used in more common radio frequency interrogator units. A finite element analysis of the device was developed for a lithium niobate (LiNBO3) substrate with a Rayleigh velocity of 3488 m/s on COMSOL Multiphysics. The Multiphysics loading and frequency results highlighted a good uniformity with numerical results. Afterwards, a hip implant geometry was developed. The SAW sensor was mounted at two locations on the implant corresponding to two regions along the shaft of the femur bone. Three discrete conditions were studied for the feasibility of the implant with upper- and lower-body loading. The loading simulations highlighted that the stresses experienced do not exceed the yield strengths. The voltage output results indicated that the SAW sensor can be implanted in the hip implant for hip implant-loosening detection applications.
