Project description
The number of people with implanted devices is increasing rapidly. In the future more and more people will have multiple implants that must be networked. We have recently shown that the human body’s adipose can be used for radio frequency communication. By enabling higher data rates than conventional in-body communication methods, our approach makes novel applications such as brain-to-machine interfaces possible. When implanting medical devices in the human body, security is of utmost importance. Our previous research has mostly targeted physical layer security. The next phase of the project will start to look into secure higher-layer protocols.
