Development of a potentially implantable pressure sensing platform with RFID interface

This work deals with the development of an active RFID tag, ISO 15693 compliant, aimed to monitor blood pressure continuously and to determine its minimum and maximum values with an embedded algorithm. The results are stored onboard in a non-volatile memory, providing the data under interrogation by means of an external RFID reader. The prototype which has been developed is a miniaturized and low-power pressure sensing platform that is mainly intended as a potentially implantable system in test animals for pharmacological research, but could also operate in environmental and industrial applications.
