  • Author Bio:
    Shuoliang Ding was born in Shenyang, China in 1994. He received both his diploma engineer degree from the Ecole Centrale de Nantes in France and diploma master degree from Beihang University in Beijing, China in 2017. He is currently pursuing the Ph.D degree in CentraleSupelec in Paris, France. In 2017, he joined the Group of Electrical Engineering in Paris (GeePs). During his Ph.D study, he has authored several papers in international conferences. His current research interests include bio-electromagnetics, antenna theory, implantable antenna design, and wireless powering devices for biomedical applications.
    Stavros Koulouridis was born in 1975, in Athens, Greece. He received the Diploma Engineer in Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Ph.D. degrees in Microwave engineering from National Technical University of Athens, Greece, in 1999 and 2003, respectively. From 1999 to 2003 he worked as Research Engineer in Microwave and Fiber Optics Lab and Biomedical Simulations and Imaging Unit, National Technical University of Athens. He taught several classes in the School of Pedagogic and Technological Education (ASPAITE) from 2000 to 2003. He was also teaching assistant from 2000 to 2002 in National Technical University of Athens. From 2004 to 2008, he worked as Postdoctoral Researcher at the Electroscience Laboratory, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA. In March 2009 he joined Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, University of Patras, Greece and since August 2013 he holds an Assistant Professor position. From 2015 to 2016 he was visiting professor in Group of electrical engineering – Paris (GeePs) / CNRS-CentraleSupelec– Univ. Paris-Sud – Université Paris-Saclay - Sorbonne Université. He leads the Microwave Communications group. His research interests include Antenna and Microwave Devices Design, Development and Fabrication of Novel Materials, Microwave Applications in Medicine, Electromagnetic Optimization Techniques, Applied Computational Electromagnetics. He was the recipient of a three year PhD Scholarship on Biomedical Engineering from Hellenic State Scholarships Foundation in 2001. In May 2005 he received the annual award for the best dissertation in National Technical University of Athens. He is the Chair of IEEE AP/MTT/ED Local Greek Chapter. He was the General Chair of IWAT 2017 (International Workshop in Antennas Technology). He has published over 80 refereed journals and conference proceeding papers. He is serving as reviewer for several scientific international journals.
    Lionel Pichon received the Dip. Eng. from Ecole Supérieure d'Ingénieurs en Electronique et Electrotechnique in 1984. In 1985 he joined the Laboratoire de Génie Electrique de Paris where he earned a PhD in electrical engineering in 1989. He got a position at the CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique) in 1989. He is now Directeur de Recherche (Senior Research Scientist) in GeePs (Group of electrical engineering – Paris), a laboratory belonging to four institutions: CNRS, CentraleSupélec, Université Paris-Saclay, Sorbonne Université. His research interests include computational electromagnetics for wave propagation, scattering and electromagnetic compatibility

  • In this paper, a complete wireless power transmission scenario is presented, including an external transmission antenna, an in-body embedded antenna, a rectifying circuit, and a powered sensor. This system operates at the Industrial, Scientific, and Medical bands (902.8–928 MHz). For the antenna design, important parameters including reflection coefficient, radiation pattern, and specific absorption rate are presented. As for the rectifying circuit, a precise model is created utilizing off-the-shelf components. Several circuit models and components are examined in order to obtain optimum results. Finally, this work is evaluated against various sensors' power needs found in literature.
