Motivation: To develop a more efficient, sensitive and integrated solution to current motion sensing techniques.
Goal(s): Demonstrate a mixer-on-coil approach to motion sensing that allows for freedom in choice of RF frequency without relying on the scanner's hardware.
Approach: We incorporate mixers onto receivers coils to efficiently mix down motion modulated high frequency signals into a tone that lies within the receiver’s bandwidth and compare its performance to Pilot Tone (PT).
Results: In cardiac and respiratory motion sensing, µPT demonstrates a x3-4 increase in percent modulation when compared to PT, aligning closely with PPG and bellow recordings with minimal impact on the noise floor.
Impact: µPT would enable efficient, higher sensitivity to motion at arbitrary frequencies, by leveraging on-coil mixing and minimizing cabling.
