Latest Patent Applications
Sommer's notable patent application is titled "Device for transmitting energy and data and method for operating such device." This energy transmission device is designed for the wireless transmission of energy to an active implant. It comprises a transmitter coil that connects to an energy source and an implantable receiver coil that inductively couples with the transmitter coil for wireless energy transmission. The device features an implantable primary coil connected to a modulator, which modulates an AC voltage supplied to the primary coil based on a data signal. This allows for data transmission from the implantable primary coil to an extracorporeal secondary coil. The frequency of the data transmission differs from the frequency at which energy is transmitted, ensuring efficient communication. Additionally, information regarding energy control is transmitted from the primary coil to the secondary coil using a pulse width modulated signal.
Conclusion
