Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Interactive packaging is an emerging research area in recent years. It brings people convenient and smart lives, reduces consumption of traditional packaging materials and direct or indirect labor costs as well. Being integrated in interactive packaging, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology becomes one of the most proactive development enablers. In this paper, an interactive and intelligent packaging solution integrating passive RFID system and Controlled Delamination Material (CDM) is given at first. Package opening action is electrically controlled by the RFID system. CDM is primarily used in aerospace applications in the past and the conductor/adhesive joint can be easily opened by applying a little electric power on to the material. Some related works will be shown about the electrochemical characteristics of CDM in order to facilitate the system design. A demonstration system was developed and the test results have proved feasibility of the solution and shown the potential of low cost for mass production. Based on this solution, an interactive medication package for pervasive healthcare is further developed, using EPCglobal Gen2 RFID technology. It will make the medication being accessible for patient only at the prescribed dose and time, and medication taking information will be delivered as well. Such medication package will not only give unprecedented high patient compliance, but also improve the communication between patients and healthcare staffs.

- A dedicated front-end for biofeedback neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NESM) system is proposed. For controllable dysphagia treatment, the integrated circuit (IC) provides a stimulator front-end with programmable stimulation parameters (2μA-1mA current amplitude, DC-2KHz frequency, and variable duty cycle) and an electromyogram/impedance (EMG/ETI) readout front-end with programmable gain and bandwidth (42-80dB, 0.1Hz-1.2KHz) for biofeedback. Area-efficient, low-power but high precision current controlling is achieved by inducing the sigma-delta modulator technique in the stimulation channel. The measured impedance and EMG signal are used to determine the stimulation parameters, enabling a closed loop optimized treatment. The proposed front-end is fabricated in a 0.18 μm standard CMOS process technology and dissipates a peak power of 2.3 mW at the supply voltage of 1.8 V. Measurement results on a live person are also provided to validate the system's effectiveness.
