Patent ID: 10763565

Abstract:
System and method of applying pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) to a human user's body. Here an electrically isolated antenna is applied to a portion of the body. This antenna is connected to a PEMF power source comprising a modified Blumlein dual transmission line transformer circuit with emphasis on miniaturization. Each transmission line comprises a substantially planar PC board mounted conducting strip configured in a meander pattern, and separated from at least one split ground plane by at least one substantially planar dielectric material and at least one split ground plane. This in turn is powered by a low voltage power supply, resonant transformer. The Blumlein circuit is charged and discharged by a processor controlled high-speed switch according to user selected time settings, and can produce outputs substantially above 1 kV. Relative to prior art devices, the system enables much smaller, lighter, and less costly PEMF implementations.
