Ultrasound Energy Transfer using Charged CMUTs

Implantable medical devices (IMDs) such as cardiac pacemakers, cochlear implants, and neurostimulators improve millions of people’s lives every day. Over the years, IMDs have significantly improved in function, increased in lifetime, and decreased in size. However, further miniaturisation is limited by the batteries used to power these devices,...

Sound localization using an array of Acoustic Vector Sensors: Mainstation data processing

In this thesis five different Direction Of Arrival algorithms will be developed for use with Microflown's Acoustic Vector Sensors, which will determine the direction an acoustic signal originates from. These algorithms will run on a main-station that will remotely receive data from an array of AVSs. The performance of these algorithms is...
