    Adaptive 6.78-MHz ISM band wireless charging for small form factor receivers
    (IEEE, 2017) Abouzeid, Mohamed Osama Hussein Soliman; Tekin, Ahmet; Electrical & Electronics Engineering; TEKİN, Ahmet; Abouzeid, Mohamed Osama Hussein Soliman
    This paper presents a low cost wireless power transfer system tailored particularly for size limited insulation sealed wearable devices. The 5-V USB input system features a crystal oscillator as reference signal source, a class-E power stage, a transmit coil with tunable series resonance and a feedback path to tune the resonance for peak power transmission. Regardless of the receive coil, load, component variations or any external blockers, the system continuously targets peak power at the strict center frequency of 6.78 MHz for compliance with international frequency regulations. Design choices and experimental measurement results were presented along with detailed circuit diagrams. The design can transfer around 50mW power to a 15mm × 17mm × 1mm 40-turn receive coil in a charging pad area of as wide as 9cm × 9cm.

    Low-cost thin-film passive RFID circuits and detector system
    (Cambridge University Press, 2020-06) El-Sawy, Salma; Nawaz, Wasim; Abouzeid, Mohamed Osama Hussein Soliman; Tekin, Ahmet; Electrical & Electronics Engineering; TEKİN, Ahmet; El-Sawy, Salma; Nawaz, Wasim; Abouzeid, Mohamed Osama Hussein Soliman
    This paper discusses the design of chip-less RFID tags of a standard pocket size of 69 mm by 156 mm. These tags are based on lumped elements of copper metal traces constructed on a thin polyamide flexible substrate. Moreover, a low-cost single-chip Bluetooth detector circuit system is demonstrated. Two different detection methods: variable coil load coupling and optical light intensity detection were combined to yield 256 unique ID codes. In the first method, by utilizing simple 4 MHz digital drivers and an integrated analog to digital converter (ADC) in the reader controller; various inductively coupled resonant loads corresponding to multiple distinct tags could be differentiated, yielding eight different (3-bit) ID codes. The additional via-based hole pattern reflectometer method creates additional 32 distinct levels (5-bit) utilizing 650 nm visible light-emitting diode and a simple trans-impedance operational along with the same analog ADC pins of a Bluetooth controller. The printed circuit board trace coil on the two-layer low-cost FR-4 waterproof sealed detector unit is simultaneously used as a Qi wireless power receiver to charge the120 mAh 2450 Lithium Polymer (LiR) battery. The device could remain operational for more than a month with a single charge; remaining connected with a mobile device and enabling 10 readouts daily.

    A sub-sampling pulse-resonance OOK modulated digital ultrasound communication system for biomedical IoT
    (Elsevier, 2019-11-01) Abouzeid, Mohamed Osama Hussein Soliman; Tekin, Ahmet; Mohieldin, A. N.; Electrical & Electronics Engineering; TEKİN, Ahmet; Abouzeid, Mohamed Osama Hussein Soliman
    A pulse-resonance On-Off keying ultrasound communication microsystem is presented. It is a viable alternative to today's widely used RF technologies in order to avoid the associated health risks for a specific group of interest, namely babies. Special signal processing and circuit techniques are proposed to overcome drawbacks of classical ultrasound communications; such as echoes and excess ringing, achieving a measured communication range of 28m with a 50bit/is data rate and bit error rate (BER) of 0.01. Targeting a biomedical sensory pacifier, the proposed design needs to be insulated, small size, and low power. Utilizing a 40 kHz ultrasound transducer and a 5-pin low-power controller, a wirelessly-charged high-accuracy remote temperature sensor system with nominal average current consumption of 0.416 mu A is designed and tested. Multiple subsystems were merged in total volume of 12mm diameter and 15mm height, excluding the charging coil, which is designed as the pacifier's handler. Thanks to echo avoidance, ringing suppression, dynamic detection threshold adjustment techniques along with 3-bit preamble synchronization; the proposed low-power sub-sampling IQ demodulation of OOK bits results in high-sensitivity robust ultrasound communication system without any alignment requirement for the transducers. The lifetime of the sensor prototype with 8mAh LiR battery is about 27 months.
