ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION OF NEURITES

Neuron, the anatomical unit of the nervous system, processes the information received as coded pulses and generates stereotype pulses sent to other neurons through axon buttons. Current technology does not allow in vivo evaluation of the electrical activity of a single neuron and electromagnetic field detected on scalp is determined by the activity of a set of neurons acting only at macro scale level. The authors present an original method for the analysis of electromagnetic radiation of a network composed of microstrip lines modelling biological neuron by using a proper space transformation. The electrical component distribution and the radiation patterns are evaluated for different resonance frequencies of a given simulated neuron. It demonstrates the capability of the network of antennas, with segments of lines automatically switched depending on the frequency of the emitted signal, for wireless transmission data to other neurons, spatially distributed.
