Channel modeling for in-body optical wireless communications
Stylianos E. Trevlakis, Alexandros-Apostolos A. Boulogeorgos, Nestor D. Chatzidiamantis +1
Next generation in-to-out-of body biomedical applications have adopted optical wireless communications (OWCs). However, by delving into the published literature, a gap is recognise…
On the symmetric and skew-symmetric K-distributions
Stylianos E. Trevlakis, Nestor D. Chatzidiamantis, George K. Karagiannidis
We propose a family of four-parameter distributions that contain the K-distribution as special case. The family is derived as a mixture distribution that uses the three-parameter r…
Pathloss modeling for in-body optical wireless communications
Stylianos E. Trevlakis, Alexandros-Apostolos A. Boulogeorgos, Nestor D. Chatzidiamantis
Optical wireless communications (OWCs) have been recognized as a candidate enabler of next generation in-body nano-scale networks and implants. The development of an accurate chann…
Machine Learning in Nano-Scale Biomedical Engineering
Alexandros-Apostolos A. Boulogeorgos, Stylianos E. Trevlakis, Sotiris A. Tegos +2
Machine learning (ML) empowers biomedical systems with the capability to optimize their performance through modeling of the available data extremely well, without using strong assu…
All-Optical Cochlear Implants
Stylianos E. Trevlakis, Alexandros-Apostolos A. Boulogeorgos, Nestor D. Chatzidiamantis +1
In the present work, we introduce a novel cochlear implant (CI) architecture, namely all-optical CI (AOCI), which directly converts acoustic to optical signals capable of stimulati…
Optical wireless communications for in-body and transdermal biomedical applications
Alexandros-Apostolos A. Boulogeorgos, Stylianos E. Trevlakis, Nestor D. Chatzidiamantis
This article discusses the fundamental architectures for optical wireless systems for biomedical applications. After summarizing the main applications and reporting their requireme…
