Abstract

In this paper, we proposed a implantable middle ear system using FM transmission and receiving method which has higher detection efficiency than that of AM method. And a new shape of vibrating transducer which is more efficiently vibrate than the conventional type is designed. This tranducer consist of coil and small T-type cylindrical permanent magnet. We investigated and compared the differences between conventional methods and proposed methods by quantitive analysis. We proved them by experiment.
