Abstract
Bioelectronics, which record the electrical activity of organisms, have become one of the major research areas for many purposes. Effectively adaptable and minuscule electronics led to this new era of bio-signal recording. Biomedical electronics also have soft and flexible characteristics with skin-mountable applications. Since bioelectronics are small enough to be portable, they allow the operation of devices without any limitations incurred by wired communications. Therefore, portable and skin-mountable devices require wireless power transfer between the devices and the transmitter. The wireless sensor network based on a near-field communication (NFC) increases the capability of the devices with a great power efficiency. This thesis shows an inductive link of the coil antenna designs that present a wireless power transfer system based on a near-field communication. The coil antennas contribute the electronics to receive power wirelessly and monitor the collected data continuously. Both coil antennas for the transmitter and the receiver are constructed of a material based on the conductivity with cost-effectiveness. In addition, the receiving antenna is designed based on soft and flexible materials so that it can be attached to the skin with bioelectronics.
