Abstract
This letter introduces a wireless powering system for multiple implantable devices located across a wide region of the human brain, addressing the spatial coverage challenges in traditional powering methods. We present an RF phased-array time-multiplexing technique that extends the powering coverage to as far as one hemisphere. The transmitter (TX) array is designed with optimal surface currents at 915 MHz to reach and beam-steer deep brain tissue. With transmitting 1 W, this method ensures safe and consistent power delivery over 18-cm lateral span and provides at least <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$250~\mu $</tex-math> </inline-formula>W to 6-cm deep receiver (RX) implants. In addition, we developed a dynamically biased 65-nm CMOS rectifier, featuring peak power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 72.6% at −2 dBm input power. The integration of phased-array multiplexing and an efficient CMOS rectifier offers a pathway toward arrays of smaller, battery-free neurostimulation implants, capable of simultaneous operation under stringent safety requirements and limited wearable power source size.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
