Abstract

Using Pulse-Width Modulation Amplitude-Shift Keying (PWM-ASK) in biomedical implants enables the simultaneous transmission of wireless energy as well as data using a single inductive link. This paper approaches Pulse-Width Modulated Amplitude-Shift Keying (PWM-ASK) from a communication theory point of view. It provides a design methodology to obtain high data rate while maintaining an optimal BER (Bit Error Rate), and optimal power transfer in biomedical implants.
