Theory and applications of biotelemetry.
In this study, biotelemetry and its evolution is explained in detail. Bioelectric and physiological variables could be measured by biotelemetry systems. The development of a biotelemetry system and its principal operation are presented. The components of a biotelemetry system are explained. Biomedical data has been telemetered through every medium between two sites by using a variety of modulated energy forms. Designing of the link between transmitter and receiver is described. Important factors in designing a backpack or implanted telemeter are explained. The main features of implanted biotelemetry units are determined. Single-channel and multichannel biotelemetry systems are defined. The types of telemetry, and a comparison thereof, are given. The power sources of biotelemetry systems and features of different power sources are explained. A survey of biotelemetry applications on humans and animals is presented and advantages of using biotelemetry systems are determined.
