Ben recently defended his MS thesis “Near-Field Data Transmission using Power- and Volume-Efficient Split Canted-Cosine-Theta Coils.”
This research focused on developing omnidirectional antennas useful for short-range communication to medical implants. Interestingly, these coils can be scaled up (or down) to detect the primary direction of magnetic fields in industrial applications, cytometry, or even particle physics.
