Experimental Assessment of A Framework for In-body RF-backscattering Localization
Localization of in-body devices is beneficial for Gastrointestinal (GI) diagnosis and targeted treatment. Traditional methods such as imaging and endoscopy are invasive and limited in resolution, highlighting the need for innovative alternatives. This study presents an experimental framework for Radio Frequency (RF)-backscatter-based in-body localization, inspired by the ReMix approach, and evaluates its performance in real-world conditions. The experimental setup includes an in-body backscatter device and various off-body antenna configurations to investigate harmonic generation and reception in air, chicken and pork tissues. The results indicate that optimal backscatter device positioning, antenna selection, and gain settings significantly impact performance, with denser biological tissues leading to greater attenuation. The study also highlights challenges such as external interference and plastic enclosures affecting propagation. The findings emphasize the importance of interference mitigation and refined propagation models to enhance performance.
