Abstract/Description
This document reports on a hands-on project aimed at learning and experiencing the concept of system-of-systems. The motivation behind this project is to study and implement the concept of System of Systems in the generation of a RF-based communication and control complex system. The goal of this project is to develop a multi-level integrated and complete system in which the vehicles that belong to a same network can become aware of their location, communicate with nearby vehicles (sometimes...

The motivation behind this project is to study and implement the concept of System of Systems in the generation of a RF-based communication and control complex system. The goal of this project is to develop a multi-level integrated and complete system in which the vehicles that belong to a same network can become aware of their location, communicate with nearby vehicles (sometimes with no visible line of sight), be notified of the presence of different objects located in their immediate vicinity (obstacles, such as abundant vehicles), and generate a two dimensional representation of the vehicles’ location for a remote user. In addition, this system will be able to transmit back messages from the remote user to a specific or to all local vehicles. The end result is a demonstration of a complex, functional, and robust system built and tested for other projects to use and learn from.

Study and Design of a PIFA for a Human-Implanted RFID Communication System
Title
Study and Design of a PIFA for a Human-Implanted RFID Communication System.
Creator
Jean-Charles, Yves-Thierry, Ungvichian, Vichate, Florida Atlantic University
Abstract/Description
This effort studies the implementation of a biocompatible Planar Inverted-F Antenna (PIF A) for the Medical Instrument Communication System (MICS) frequency band of 402 to 405 MHz for RFID applications. The basic electromagnetic properties of human tissues are investigated at 403 .5 MHz. Then, the radiation characteristics of submerged wire antenna are evaluated in order to approximate the effects of multilayered media on a PIFA's performance. The PIFA is assessed using Ansoft's Finite...
Show moreThis effort studies the implementation of a biocompatible Planar Inverted-F Antenna (PIF A) for the Medical Instrument Communication System (MICS) frequency band of 402 to 405 MHz for RFID applications. The basic electromagnetic properties of human tissues are investigated at 403 .5 MHz. Then, the radiation characteristics of submerged wire antenna are evaluated in order to approximate the effects of multilayered media on a PIFA's performance. The PIFA is assessed using Ansoft's Finite Element Method based electromagnetic evaluation software, HFSS v.l 0. The electrical parameters of the antenna in relation to the surrounding environment, notably air, silicone capsule, and a three-layered bio-media, are presented. The analysis shows that the resonant frequency as well as the electrical performance of the design is significantly affected by the physical dimensions and the relative permittivity of the dielectric materials covering the antenna.
