A biomedical sensor and sensor system for analysis of breath are disclosed. The biomedical sensor can include two layers arranged to swell or contract in a plane perpendicular to an axial direction while being restricted from swelling in the axial direction. The biomedical sensor includes resistance connections to allow measurement of the resistance of each layer and a combined resistance of both layers. The sensor system can include one, two, or three or more sensors, each having a pair of electrodes separated by a gap and one or more layers of composite material located within the gap. the sensor system includes resistance circuits configured to measure changes in resistance between the electrodes. A polypyrrole/polymethyl methacrylate/polyethylene glycol composite material and method of making the same are disclosed.

Wireless sensor system that integrate sensors, wireless communication module, and user interface units are disclosed. The system can include sensors fabricated for identifying hypoglycemia in the breath of a patient. The system can provide a low-power and small form factor wireless sensor system that integrates multiple sensors (e.g. resistor and capacitor based) and includes an on-chip temperature sensor in an ASIC. The disclosed system collects information from the sensors and wirelessly transmits the processed information to end user interface units, such as smart phones. The systems can be used in healthcare applications, including un-interrupted involuntary continuous monitoring of vital parameters of human body or environment, and other applications, and can be particularly adapted to monitoring hypoglycemia.
摘要:
A method of imaging biological tissue enables imaging structure in the biological tissue with an antenna tuned to emit radio energy through at least a covering layer of the biological tissue without significant attenuation of the radio energy. The method includes contacting skin covering tissue with a radio frequency emitting antenna, and adjusting at least one of a radiator and a feed in the antenna with reference to at least one measured electrical or physical property of the skin. The adjustment of the radiator and feed enable a combination of the antenna and skin to emit radio energy at a predetermined magnitude and frequency into a portion of the tissue covered by the skin.

摘要:
A chipless RFID tag system having a transmitter sending an input signal and a tag substrate. An ID generation circuit on the tag relies on microstrip transmission line patterns which are pre-designed to generate a unique code. The ID generating circuit may be designed based upon the transmission line properties, including signal delay, and/or reflection, and/or phase change. The tag may be formed on a flexible substrate having at least one microstrip and the microstrip having a first portion with a first impedance and a second portion with a second impedance different from the first impedance. The tag may further include a microstrip antenna for communication with the transmitter and a receiver system. The tag may also include sensors for detection of desired substances of interest. The system may further include a receiver detecting at least two reflections from an interface of first and second impedances and identifying relative time domain positions of the reflections to one another.
