    Abstract: The implantable medical device is for implantation into a patient's body and is wirelessly powered by an external control device. The implantable medical device is induced by an AC electromagnetic field of the external control device through an inductive coil. A rectifier converts the AC electromagnetic field into a DC current. A detector detects a voltage value of the DC current, and a processor produces a first piece of status information accordingly. A transceiver receives and relays the first piece of status information to the external control device so as to monitor the power consumption of the implantable medical device when it is wirelessly powered.

    Abstract: An external control device includes a human-computer interface, a first controller and a power transmitting unit. An implantable medical device includes a power receiving unit, a second controller and a second detector. A method for monitoring power supply comprises: producing a first magnetic field by the power transmitting unit; sensing the first magnetic field to produce a second magnetic field and converting it into a direct current by the power receiving unit; detecting a power value of the direct current by the second detector to output a detection signal to the second controller; outputting a status information to the external control device by the second controller according to the detection signal; and receiving the status information by the first controller. The first controller transmits an adjustment signal to the power transmitting unit if informed of the status information that the power value is not within a designate power range.
