Magneto-Inductive Communication and Localization
Utilizing magnetic induction for wireless communication, wireless powering, passive relaying, and localization could enable massive wireless sensor applications with tiny nodes in challenging media, foremost biomedical in-body sensor networks. This work investigates the performance limits of these unique wireless systems with hardly any assumptions. As a foundation, a general system model and an interface to communication theory are developed. A major part of this work identifies two crucial magneto-inductive fading channels: that between randomly oriented coils and that caused by a nearby swarm of resonant passive relay coils. The analysis yields important technological implications. Based thereon, an investigation of wirelessly-powered in-body sensors is conducted, revealing their active and passive data transmission capabilities. Finally, a treatise of magneto-inductive node localization develops algorithms that perform near identified accuracy limits in theory and practice.

The Report: Dubai 2018
Dubai has continued to meet its targets in becoming the global capital of Islamic finance, nearly doubling the number of sukuk (Islamic bonds) listings on its exchanges since 2017. Furthermore, eased policy restrictions to encourage foreign investment and the 2019 budget’s continued commitment to infrastructure development ahead of Expo 2020 are expected to continue driving economic activity. As one of the most diversified economies in the region, Dubai continues to present growth opportunities in various sectors including tourism, logistics, manufacturing and education. Although the emirate has benefitted from its proximity to oil and gas fields, Dubai is right at the forefront of the emerging cleaner energy world, and developing and promoting renewable technologies, including solar energy and electric vehicles.
Posture Recognition for Fall Prevention with Low-Complexity UWB WBANs
In our increasingly interconnected world, personalized and technology-assisted healthcare has become a rising trend. In an ageing society, technology enables new ways to care for and assist the elderly. Falls pose a major risk and cause of injuries for senior citizens. Technology-backed fall prevention thus has the potential to avoid severe injuries and further loss of independence, but requires continuous monitoring of the body posture in order to identify imminent falls. This work presents a system concept for a wearable wireless body area network (WBAN) for posture monitoring. It shows the principal feasibility of posture recognition from ultra-wideband (UWB) signals based on a large and diverse set of measurements. For a promising classifier-feature-combination, this work demonstrates how reliable posture recognition can be achieved with a limited number of body-mounted nodes, and analyzes its robustness towards potential pitfalls. It concludes with a proposal for a system implementation, and outlines its integration with existing and future aspects of personalized healthcare.
Localization and Posture Recognition via Magneto-Inductive and Relay-Aided Sensor Networks
Body-centric wireless sensor networks are expected to enable future technologies such as medical in-body micro robots or unobtrusive smart textiles. These technologies may advance personalized healthcare as they allow for tasks such as minimally invasive surgery, in-body diagnosis, and continuous activity recognition. However, the localization of individual sensor nodes within such networks or the determination of the entire network topology still pose challenges that need to be solved. This work provides both theoretic and simulative insights to enable the required sub-millimeter localization accuracy of such sensors using magneto-inductive networks. It identifies inherent localization issues such as the asymmetry of the position estimation in magneto-inductive networks and outlines how such issues may be addressed by using passive relays or cooperation. It further proposes a novel approach to recognize the entire structure of a magneto-inductive network using simple impedance measurements and clusters of passive tags. This approach is evaluated extensively by simulation and experiment to demonstrate the feasibility of low-cost human body posture recognition.
