Neural signal regeneration and motor function rebuilding of paralyzed limbs based on principles of communication incorporated with microwave transmission system

In this presentation the motor function rebuilding of paralyzed limbs of the paraplegic patients caused by spinal cord injury and the hemiplegic patients after stroke and SCI is concerned. The biomedical methods and the traditional physical methods for the rehabilitation of two kinds of paralyses are reviewed. The core part is to discuss the neural and muscular signal regeneration and the limb function rebuilding based on the principles of communication and functional electrical stimulation - a novel concept developed by the speakers. For the communication, a microwave transmission system is incorporated. The construction of the whole bio-electronic system, the animal experiments, and the elementary experiments on healthy and paralyzed patients will be demonstrated.
