Abstract

The emerging in vivo communication and networking system is a prospective component in advancing healthcare delivery and empowering the development of new applications and services. In vivo communications is based on networked cyber-physical systems of embedded devices to allow rapid, correct and cost- effective responses under various conditions. IVN overcomes fundamental challenges which have prevented past systems from powering up miniature sensors beyond superficial depths. These challenges include the significant signal attenuation caused by bodily tissues and the miniature antennas of the implantable sensors. This chapter presents the existing research which investigates the state of art of the in vivo communication. In this article attempt is done to throw a light on concept and method of in vivo communication technique. It focuses on characterizing and modeling the in vivo wireless channel and contrasting it with the other familiar channels. Furthermore, this article addresses in vivo nano communication which is presented for medical applications to provide fast and accurate disease diagnosis and treatment. Such communication paradigm is capable of operating inside the human body in real time and will be of great benefit for medical monitoring and medical implant communications.
