A synchronous chopping demodulator and implementation for high-frequency inductive position sensors
This paper arises from a collaborative DTI project between UCL and five industrial partners including Zettlex Ltd, a leading manufacturer of non-contact position sensors. Led to patent WO2009077759A1 for a high-precision differential mode sensing method, which also finds application in healthcare technologies. The work described led to further funding from EPSRC to develop new imaging devices for neonate lung function monitoring in intensive care units (EP/E029426/1, £316,571 PI: Demosthenous) and detection of cancer biomarkers (EP/G061629/1, £358,357, PI: Demosthenous). The work was a key publication in the recently awarded £11M EPSRC IRC in “Early-Warning Sensing Systems for Infectious Diseases” (Co-I: Demosthenous).
