In this work a 2 MHz on-off keying (OOK) transmitter/receiver for inductive
power and data transmission for biomedical implant system is presented.
Inductive link, driven by a Class E power amplifier (PA) is the most PA used
to transfer data and power to the internal part of biomedical implant system.
Proposed transmitter consists of a digital control oscillator (DCO) and a class
E PA which uses OOK modulation to transfer both data and power to a
biomedical implant. In proposing OOK transmitter when the transmitter
sends binary value โ€œ0โ€ the DCO and PA are turned off. With this architecture
and 2 MHz carrier wave we have implemented a wireless data and power
transfer link which can transmit data with data rate 1Mbps and bit error rate
(BER) of 10-5. The efficiency of power transfer is 42% with a 12.7 uH
transmitter coil and a 2.4 uH receiver coil and the power delivered to the load
is about 104.7 mW. Proposed transmitter is designed for output power 4.1V.
OOK receiver consists of an OOK demodulator, powered by rectified and
regulated 5V p-p RF signal across the receiver coil. The supply voltage of
proposed voltage regulator is 5 V with 9mV/V line regulation of. All circuits
proposed in this paper were designed and simulated using Cadence in 0.18

1. INTRODUCTION
Biomedical implants are widely used in a our everyday life, for example, cochlear implant system is
an electronic implant that aims to severe hearing loss and for people with tinnitus or provide a certain level of
hearing for some people with profound deafness (deep end cochlear deafness). As shown in Figure 1,
the working of a cochlear implant is as follows, a speech processor used to select and arrange sounds picked
up by the microphone, a receiver and transmitter convert received signals sent by the speech processor into
electric impulses, a microphone, picks up sound from the environment, and an electrode array, which is a
group of electrodes sends the impulses to different regions of the auditory nerve collected from
the simulator [1, 2].

Figure 1. Ear with cochlear implant
In general, biomedical implant system has two different parts, an external part or transmitter (outside
the human body) and an internal part or receiver (inside the human body). A biomedical implant system use
inductive powering to transmit both data (modulated signal) and power from the external part to the internal
part [3-5]. A power amplifier (linear, class-E PAโ€ฆ) is used to generate a magnetic field in a coil of
the transmitter, placed on the skin. This magnetic field induces an AC current in another coil of the receiver.
The generated AC voltage in the coil of receiver is rectified and regulated by a voltage regulator circuit and
used as supply voltage for the inner circuit blocks of the receiver (demodulator, clock generatorโ€ฆ).
To transfer power to the implant, it is required to transmit/receive data from/to the implant and communicate
with the implant. In the implants that are used to apply artificially acquired sensory information to
the peripheral or central nervous system, like retinal prostheses and cochlear implants, a large of digital data
should be transmitted to the implant; it is preferable to use the same inductive link to transfer power. The data
rate transmission in this sort of biomedical implant system should be high, exceeding 20Mbps for visual
prostheses and 1Mbps for cochlear implants.
Because the high tissue electromagnetic absorption at higher frequencies as well as the coupled coils
self-resonance, the wide bandwidth with a carrier frequency is limited to a few ten of Mega Hertz.
To increase the data transmission rate for the biomedical implants, two separate pairs of coils for data and
power transfer are used, a pair of high-Q power coils are used for data transfer, and another pair of coils
(power coils) are used for power transfer. The data are transmitted using a frequency sinusoidal signal which
has a much larger frequency than the signal used to transmit power, or using a carrier-less data modulations
such as PDM modulation (pulse delay modulation) and PHM modulation (pulse harmonic modulation) [6-8].
On the aspect of bandwidth of this inductive transcutaneous link a few studies that focus.
The mostly modulations used in the radio frequency transceiver sensor node are On-off keying modulation
(OOK), Amplitude shift keying modulation (ASK) and frequency shift keying modulation (FSK) [9, 10].
Because of their simple modulation/demodulation circuitry OOK and ASK modulation have been used in
the above applications, and they are suitable for envelope detection and simple super-regenerative
architecture [11, 12]. The implementation of ASK is another work that we published in [13]. In this work we
are particularly interested by the OOK transmitter/receiver with 2 MHz for medical implant with 1 Mbps data
rate. Our work is designed in 0.18 um CMOS technology. To minimize the power consumption of
the proposed OOK transmitter, tower blocks are used to generate an OOK signal, a digital control oscillator
(DCO) and a class E power amplifier (PA). In this proposed architecture according to the binary value
transmitted the OOK transmitter can be realized by turning on/off the DCO circuit and the class E PA.
The class E PA with high efficiency provides the required power for signal transmission. The OOK
transmitter was designed for output power 4.1V and 1.2mA power consumption from 4V supply voltage.
On the other hand, the OOK receiver consists of an OOK demodulator, voltage rectifier and voltage
regulator. OOK demodulator is powered by a 5V supply voltage, rectified (rectifying of the RF signal at
the receiver coil, 5V OOK waveform) using NMOS bridge voltage rectifier and regulated using voltage
regulator. The organizing of this paper is as follows: section 2 presents the generic architecture of an
inductive link. Analyzes and theoretical calculates of 2 MHz OOK transmitter, 2 MHz receiver and
simulation results/discussion are presented in Sections 3, 4 and 5 respectively.

2. INDUCTIVE LINK
An inductive link is an air core transformer works on the principle of mutual coupling .It consists of
primary and secondary circuits. As shown in Figure 2 the primary circuit of inductive link tuned in series
resonance and secondary circuit tuned in parallel resonance. If a power amplifier is used in the primary
circuit the inductive link is an ideal combination due to its close resemblance to the actual link. In addition,
because the capacitor voltage and phase of the inductor cancel at resonance a series resonant primary network
requires lower voltage is swinging at the input of primary network of inductive link. Voltage gain and
efficiency profiles for this topology shown in Figure 3 are described mathematically by (1) and (2)
respectively [14].

The block diagram of the proposed OOK transmitter is shown in Figure 4. The 2 MHz OOK
modulation scheme is utilized, in which binary values โ€œ1โ€ andโ€œ0โ€ are represented by a pulse and no pulse
transmission respectively [15, 16]. The OOK transmitter consists of two principal blocks: the oscillator
circuit and the power amplifier. According to message data the OOK transmitter can be realized by turning
on or off the power amplifier and digital controlled oscillator. In proposing transmitter when digital
controlled oscillator is turned off, the power amplifier is turned off, too. The digital control oscillator and
power amplifier are represented in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 respectively.

Figure 4. Proposed OOK transmitter
3.1. Digital control oscillator DCO
Circuit oscillators play a key role in a wireless communication network. In OOK transmitters,
oscillator and power amplifier turn off in sending of binary โ€œ0โ€. However, all of components of
the transmitter must be switched on and off with data rate frequency. The required time of ON/OFF duration
of all the blocks determines the maximum data rate frequency. The required time for the ON/OFF duration of
oscillator is higher than the other blocks of OOK transmitter. Figure 5 shows the LC complementary
oscillator used in proposed transmitter. It composes of the digital signals that are adopted to control. The C
bank has 5 transistor switches with capacitors and generates thirty two overlapped discrete tuning curves to
increase the desired frequency tuning range. The amplitude voltage is given by (3).the amplitude voltage is
proportional with bias current and parallel resistance.

with the Rp is the equivalent resistance which determined with quality factor of inductor.
In the designed of the proposed complementary oscillator, Vdd is 2V and 0.7uH inductor with Q=25
and the swing voltage is about 3.5 V that is sufficient for driving modulator. In the complementary oscillator,
having a high swing voltage required that parallel resistance Rp or bias current to be high. It should be
reminded that high bias current will increase power consuming and large parallel resistance require for an
inductor. Unfortunately, the integrated inductor inherently has low quality and Rp could not be higher.
Since the oscillator must be having enough output voltage for driving of power amplifier. So, for have high
swing output in the oscillator DC current must be increased.

3.2. Class E power amplifier
Class E power amplifier (PA) is known as switched mode PA because transistor or active device
acts as a switch. Classes A, B and C refer to amplifiers in which the active device acts as a current source.
Class E PA composed of a single-pole switch (active device) and a load network. To improve the efficiency
of power amplifier the active device as the switch is used instead a high-impedance current source. With DC
input voltage and current, class E PA is capable to drive relatively high AC current through the coil of

transmitter with high efficiency. This is a consequence of an impedance transformation inherent to the Class
E circuit. The maximum achievable efficiencies from different amplifier classes are shown in Table 1.
Because of its 100% theoretical efficiency the Class E PA is a preferable designerโ€™s choice. Proposed class E
power amplifier is shown in Figure 6. To develop Class E Amplifier we employed single ended Class E
configuration with multi-frequency load network topology. The advantage of using this structure is the ease
of inclusion of parasitic drain-source capacitance of the switch transistor into the design optimization as
compared to Class C or Class D amplifiers [17, 18]. The parameters of proposed class E PA are presented in
Table 2.

4. OOK RECIEVRE STRUCTURE
The OOK receiver as shown in Figure 7 consists of a voltage rectifier an OOK demodulator and
voltage regulator. The RF signal at the coil of receiver is rectified using a bridge rectifier. The regulator
circuit comes after the rectifier. The voltage regulator performs two main functions. The first is to regulate
the output voltage to a preferred value and a preferred range of the internal part of a biomedical implant
system. The other is to protect the inner circuits from breaking at high RF input power. The basic topology of
a voltage regulator is shown in Figure 8 [19, 20]. It consists of an OTA (operational transconductance
amplifier), tow regulation resistances and a voltage reference to generate a regulated voltage using an input
voltage reference auto generated Vref.

Figure 10 shows the proposed OOK demodulator for internal part of biomedical implant.
The implant receives control settings from the external transmitter via the inductive link using OOK
modulation with a data rate of 1Mbps. The envelope detector extracts the signal from the carrier wave.
As the recovery time of the carrier varies with the load and coupling coefficient, the time constant of the RC
peak detector should be set to a larger value than the worst case rise time of the carrier [22, 23]. The
implemented C is 18.5 pF and R is 1.1 KOhm. Transistors M5โ€“M9 form a Schmitt trigger generates a digital
data from the peak detector.

CMOS technology. The minimum output of DCO working at 2 MHz is 1.8 V. The waveform of output
modulated signal with โ€œ00100100100100โ€ binary sequence and 1 Mbps data rate was achieved with
104.7mW output power and 42% link efficiency is shown in Figure 11. Figure 12 and Figure 13 show
the voltage across the receiver coil, the amplitude of the OOK waveform at the secondary side is about 5V
and the transient response of proposed rectified and regulated voltage with 20 dBm input power, after 2.9 us
the DC voltage is 5.0008 V with line regulation of about 9mV/V respectively. The transient response of OOK
demodulator is shown in Figure 14. The proposed demodulator circuit has the ability to decode an encoded

Inductive link, driven by a Class E power amplifier (PA) is the most PA used to transfer data and power to the internal part of biomedical implant system. Proposed transmitter consists of a digital control oscillator (DCO) and a class E PA which uses OOK modulation to transfer both data and power to a biomedical implant. In proposing OOK transmitter when the transmitter sends binary value โ€œ0โ€ the DCO and PA are turned off. With this architecture and 2 MHz carrier wave we have implemented a wireless data and power transfer link which can transmit data with data rate 1Mbps and bit error rate (BER) of 10-5. The efficiency of power transfer is 42% with a 12.7 uH transmitter coil and a 2.4 uH receiver coil and the power delivered to the load is about 104.7 mW. Proposed transmitter is designed for output power 4.1V. OOK receiver consists of an OOK demodulator, powered by rectified and regulated 5V p-p RF signal across the receiver coil. The supply voltage of proposed voltage regulator is 5 V with 9mV/V line regulation of. All circuits proposed in this paper were designed and simulated using Cadence in 0.18 um CMOS process.

INTRODUCTION Biomedical implants are widely used in a our everyday life, for example, cochlear implant system is an electronic implant that aims to severe hearing loss and for people with tinnitus or provide a certain level of hearing for some people with profound deafness (deep end cochlear deafness). As shown in Figure 1, the working of a cochlear implant is as follows, a speech processor used to select and arrange sounds picked up by the microphone, a receiver and transmitter convert received signals sent by the speech processor into electric impulses, a microphone, picks up sound from the environment, and an electrode array, which is a group of electrodes sends the impulses to different regions of the auditory nerve collected from the simulator [1, 2].
  • 2. ๏ฒ ISSN: 2088-8708 Int J Elec & Comp Eng, Vol. 9, No. 4, August 2019 : 2779 - 2787 2780 Figure 1. Ear with cochlear implant In general, biomedical implant system has two different parts, an external part or transmitter (outside the human body) and an internal part or receiver (inside the human body). A biomedical implant system use inductive powering to transmit both data (modulated signal) and power from the external part to the internal part [3-5]. A power amplifier (linear, class-E PAโ€ฆ) is used to generate a magnetic field in a coil of the transmitter, placed on the skin. This magnetic field induces an AC current in another coil of the receiver. The generated AC voltage in the coil of receiver is rectified and regulated by a voltage regulator circuit and used as supply voltage for the inner circuit blocks of the receiver (demodulator, clock generatorโ€ฆ). To transfer power to the implant, it is required to transmit/receive data from/to the implant and communicate with the implant. In the implants that are used to apply artificially acquired sensory information to the peripheral or central nervous system, like retinal prostheses and cochlear implants, a large of digital data should be transmitted to the implant; it is preferable to use the same inductive link to transfer power. The data rate transmission in this sort of biomedical implant system should be high, exceeding 20Mbps for visual prostheses and 1Mbps for cochlear implants. Because the high tissue electromagnetic absorption at higher frequencies as well as the coupled coils self-resonance, the wide bandwidth with a carrier frequency is limited to a few ten of Mega Hertz. To increase the data transmission rate for the biomedical implants, two separate pairs of coils for data and power transfer are used, a pair of high-Q power coils are used for data transfer, and another pair of coils (power coils) are used for power transfer. The data are transmitted using a frequency sinusoidal signal which has a much larger frequency than the signal used to transmit power, or using a carrier-less data modulations such as PDM modulation (pulse delay modulation) and PHM modulation (pulse harmonic modulation) [6-8]. On the aspect of bandwidth of this inductive transcutaneous link a few studies that focus. The mostly modulations used in the radio frequency transceiver sensor node are On-off keying modulation (OOK), Amplitude shift keying modulation (ASK) and frequency shift keying modulation (FSK) [9, 10]. Because of their simple modulation/demodulation circuitry OOK and ASK modulation have been used in the above applications, and they are suitable for envelope detection and simple super-regenerative architecture [11, 12]. The implementation of ASK is another work that we published in [13]. In this work we are particularly interested by the OOK transmitter/receiver with 2 MHz for medical implant with 1 Mbps data rate. Our work is designed in 0.18 um CMOS technology. To minimize the power consumption of the proposed OOK transmitter, tower blocks are used to generate an OOK signal, a digital control oscillator (DCO) and a class E power amplifier (PA). In this proposed architecture according to the binary value transmitted the OOK transmitter can be realized by turning on/off the DCO circuit and the class E PA. The class E PA with high efficiency provides the required power for signal transmission. The OOK transmitter was designed for output power 4.1V and 1.2mA power consumption from 4V supply voltage. On the other hand, the OOK receiver consists of an OOK demodulator, voltage rectifier and voltage regulator. OOK demodulator is powered by a 5V supply voltage, rectified (rectifying of the RF signal at the receiver coil, 5V OOK waveform) using NMOS bridge voltage rectifier and regulated using voltage regulator. The organizing of this paper is as follows: section 2 presents the generic architecture of an inductive link. Analyzes and theoretical calculates of 2 MHz OOK transmitter, 2 MHz receiver and simulation results/discussion are presented in Sections 3, 4 and 5 respectively.

INDUCTIVE LINK An inductive link is an air core transformer works on the principle of mutual coupling .It consists of primary and secondary circuits. As shown in Figure 2 the primary circuit of inductive link tuned in series resonance and secondary circuit tuned in parallel resonance. If a power amplifier is used in the primary circuit the inductive link is an ideal combination due to its close resemblance to the actual link. In addition, because the capacitor voltage and phase of the inductor cancel at resonance a series resonant primary network requires lower voltage is swinging at the input of primary network of inductive link.

TRANSMITTER STRUCTURE The block diagram of the proposed OOK transmitter is shown in Figure 4. The 2 MHz OOK modulation scheme is utilized, in which binary values โ€œ1โ€ andโ€œ0โ€ are represented by a pulse and no pulse transmission respectively [15, 16]. The OOK transmitter consists of two principal blocks: the oscillator circuit and the power amplifier. According to message data the OOK transmitter can be realized by turning on or off the power amplifier and digital controlled oscillator. In proposing transmitter when digital controlled oscillator is turned off, the power amplifier is turned off, too. The digital control oscillator and power amplifier are represented in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 respectively. VRL L2 C2P L1C1L R1 R2 RL VIN

Digital control oscillator DCO Circuit oscillators play a key role in a wireless communication network. In OOK transmitters, oscillator and power amplifier turn off in sending of binary โ€œ0โ€. However, all of components of the transmitter must be switched on and off with data rate frequency. The required time of ON/OFF duration of all the blocks determines the maximum data rate frequency. The required time for the ON/OFF duration of oscillator is higher than the other blocks of OOK transmitter. Figure 5 shows the LC complementary oscillator used in proposed transmitter. It composes of the digital signals that are adopted to control. The C bank has 5 transistor switches with capacitors and generates thirty two overlapped discrete tuning curves to increase the desired frequency tuning range.

In the designed of the proposed complementary oscillator, Vdd is 2V and 0.7uH inductor with Q=25 and the swing voltage is about 3.5 V that is sufficient for driving modulator. In the complementary oscillator, having a high swing voltage required that parallel resistance Rp or bias current to be high. It should be reminded that high bias current will increase power consuming and large parallel resistance require for an inductor. Unfortunately, the integrated inductor inherently has low quality and Rp could not be higher. Since the oscillator must be having enough output voltage for driving of power amplifier. So, for have high swing output in the oscillator DC current must be increased. Figure 5. DCO circuit 3.2. Class E power amplifier Class E power amplifier (PA) is known as switched mode PA because transistor or active device acts as a switch. Classes A, B and C refer to amplifiers in which the active device acts as a current source. Class E PA composed of a single-pole switch (active device) and a load network.

This is a consequence of an impedance transformation inherent to the Class E circuit. The maximum achievable efficiencies from different amplifier classes are shown in Table 1. Because of its 100% theoretical efficiency the Class E PA is a preferable designerโ€™s choice. Proposed class E power amplifier is shown in Figure 6. To develop Class E Amplifier we employed single ended Class E configuration with multi-frequency load network topology.

OOK RECIEVRE STRUCTURE The OOK receiver as shown in Figure 7 consists of a voltage rectifier an OOK demodulator and voltage regulator. The RF signal at the coil of receiver is rectified using a bridge rectifier. The regulator circuit comes after the rectifier. The voltage regulator performs two main functions. The first is to regulate the output voltage to a preferred value and a preferred range of the internal part of a biomedical implant system. The other is to protect the inner circuits from breaking at high RF input power. The basic topology of a voltage regulator is shown in Figure 8 [19, 20]. It consists of an OTA (operational transconductance amplifier), tow regulation resistances and a voltage reference to generate a regulated voltage using an input voltage reference auto generated Vref.
