An experimental validation of a detailed numerical model for predicting implantable medical devices EMI due to low-band RFID reader/writers

The numerical assessment methodology of RFID/IMD-EMI was confirmed based on the result of the in-vitro experiments and the numerical analyses. The maximum interference distances obtained by the experiments and the FDTD analysis agreed very well. The good repeatability of the experiments and detailed modeling in the analyses achieve this high accuracy estimation. These results clarify the interference voltages due to the magnetic field generated around the low-band RFID reader/writer and they can be estimated by using precise and detailed analysis.
