==Introduction==
 +
*The smart drug delivery system is used for delivering drugs to the host. Biological information detected by biological sensors is analyzed and the drug delivery system is actuated to deliver the drug based on the information.
 +
*The system utilizes MEMS or NEMS technology based drug pumps, micro-pumps, micro-needles, micro-osmotic pumps, and nano-pumps.
 +
*MEMS based drug delivery systems provide enhanced drug therapy which allows accurate dosing with more efficacy and effectiveness. The application of MEMS for drug delivery through biocapsules, microneedles, and micropumps offers a less invasive drug therapy and improves the quality of life of the patients.
 +
*It also includes sensors or communication systems to remotely  activate or control the pumps.

In order to overcome the problems associated with fixed speed wind turbine system and to maximize the wind energy capture, many new wind farms are employing variable speed wind energy conversion systems (WECS) with doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG). It is the most popular and widely used scheme for the wind generators due to its advantages.
 
  
−
For variable-speed systems with limited variable-speed range, e.g. ±30% of synchronous speed, the doubly-fed induction generator(DFIG) can be an interesting solution. This is mainly due to the fact that the power electronic converter only has to handle a fraction (20-30%) of the total power as the converters are connected to the rotor and not to the stator. Therefore, the losses in the power electronic converter can be reduced, compared to a system where the converter has to handle the total power. The overall structure of wind power generation through DFIG as shown in the figure below.

|align = "right"|6,52,748
−
|The DFIG system has poor damping of oscillations within the flux dynamics due to cross coupling between active and reactive currents, which makes the system potentially unstable under certain circumstances and complicates the work of the rotor current controller. These oscillations can damage the drive train mechanisms.
+

−
|A compensation block is arranged, which feeds a compensation control output to the rotor of the generator. The computation unit computes the control output during operation of the turbine to compensate partly for dependencies on a rotor angular speed of locations of poles of a generator transfer function, so that the transfer function is made independent of variations in the speed during operation of the turbine which eliminates the oscillations and increases the efficiency of the wind turbine.

|Method and system of control of the converter of an electricity generation facility connected to an electricity network in the presence of voltage sags in said network
+
|align = "right"|1,68,139
−
|Double-fed asynchronous generators are very sensitive to the faults that may arise in the electricity network, such as voltage sags. During the sag conditions the current which appears in said converter may reach very high values, and may even destroy it.
+
|--valign="top"
−
|During the event of a voltage sag occurring, the converter imposes a new set point current which is the result of adding to the previous set point current a new term, called demagnetizing current, It is proportional to a value of free flow of a generator stator. A difference between a value of a magnetic flow in the stator of the generator and a value of a stator flow associated to a direct component of a stator voltage is estimated. A value of a preset calculated difference is multiplied by a factor for producing the demagnetizing current.

|Frequency converter for a double-fed asynchronous generator with variable power output and method for its operation

−
|Optislip circuit with a resistor is used when speed is above synchronous speed, results in heating the resistor and thus the generator leads to limitation of operation in super synchronous range which results in tower fluctuations.

|Providing a back-to-back converter which contains the inverter circuit has direct current (DC) inputs, DC outputs, and a rotor-rectifier connected to a rotor of a dual feed asynchronous generator. A mains inverter is connected to a power grid, and an intermediate circuit connects one of the DC inputs with the DC outputs. The intermediate circuit has a semiconductor switch between the DC outputs, an intermediate circuit condenser between the DC inputs, and a diode provided between the semiconductor switch and the condenser. Thus the system is allowed for any speed of wind  and reduces the tower fluctuations.

|Wind turbines with double fed induction generators are sensitive to grid faults. Conventional methods are not effective to reduce the shaft stress during grid faults and slow response and using dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is cost expensive.
+
−
|The protection system has a controlled impedance device. Impedance device has bidirectional semiconductors such triac, assembly of thyristors or anti-parallel thyristors. Each of the controlled impedance devices is coupled between a respective phase of a stator winding of a double fed induction generator and a respective phase of a grid side converter. The protection system also includes a controller configured for coupling and decoupling impedance in one or more of the controlled impedance devices in response to changes in utility grid voltage and a utility grid current. High impedance is offered to the grid during network faults to isolate the dual fed wind turbine generator.

|Intelligent medical device system for personalized medicine applications
 +
|The implantable medical devices are not "intelligent"but they are simple deterministic systems; They are also single function devices focused on a specific narrow medical problem and do not combine diagnostic and therapeutic functionality; The devices are not useful in personalized medicine, which require complex analysis and targeting of individual therapies to unique problem sets.
 +
|The iMD system diagnoses neurological, cardiovascular, immune, endocrine and cancer pathologies and develops and applies solution options in real time to each of these subsystems or to all of them simultaneously. The system uses a combination of diagnostic and therapeutic modules in multiple iMDs in a network to identify and apply remedies to pathologies. The iMD system uses a variety of therapeutic modalities, including gene, RNAi and protein therapies, to solve complex medical problems.

 +
*Major changes such as an aging population and growing obesity issues in many countries (leading for example to diabetes or other disorders) are impacting the medical MEMS market. These and other factors are among the motivations for making treatments less invasive or for monitoring the movements of the elderly. MEMS used in insulin pumps increase the efficacy and comfort of insulin drug delivery, for instance, while accelerometers monitor elderly people, tirelessly watching their movements, their position or presence in a bed, if they fall, and so on.
 +
 
 +
*Pressure sensors monitor gases during surgical operations or the treatment of sleep apnea. Accelerometers and gyroscopes assist surgeons by removing shake during precise operations. Emerging applications include implantable wireless pressure sensors, which are showing great promise in monitoring tell tale pressure buildup following heart surgery and are used for post-op monitoring of aneurisms. As a result markets for medical diagnostics and drug delivery devices enjoy 34% and 32% CAGR respectively from 2009 to 2014.

Problem Solution
1 US6723086 04/20/04 Logiq Wireless Solutions Remote controlled trans-dermal medication delivery device Ambulatory individuals requiring long term medication need to take medications at inconvenient times, in awkward locations, or have to stay at home to follow their medication regime; Oral administration leads to side effects with blood medication levels sometimes rising to toxic levels or falling to subtherapeutic levels Transdermal medication delivery provides constant and continuous absorption of the drug while allowing the patient to remain ambulatory while receiving the medication; transdermal drug delivery eliminate factors such as pH changes and food intake that influence gastrointestinal absorption; transdermal medication delivery device allows the vital signs of a patient to be monitored from a remote location.
2 US20090306633 10/12/09 Koninklijke Philips Electronics Electronically controlled capsule When taking medications in the form of capsules, a log has to be maintained regarding what capsules has to be administered and at what intervals of time; Time-release capsules do not follow an exact dispensing or dissolving pattern while traveling through the alimentary tract Electronically controlled capsule for delivering or dispensing a medicament according to a preset dispensing timing pattern while traversing through the gastrointestinal tract; Electronically controlled capsule allows a person to take all capsules substantially simultaneously, so that no more capsules are required for the day;
3 US20080161779 03/07/08 None Implantable nano pump for drug delivery Detecting, evaluating, and treating people with hypertension wherein the drug treatment has its mix of favorable and unfavorable effects, costs and sometimes the treatment is inadequate. A real-time, self-actuated nano-pumps that respond to different blood pressure, blood lipid or blood glucose levels by having membranes of varying thickness, thus enabling multi-level blood pressure drug release.
4 US20080152592 06/26/08 Bayer Healthcare Method of therapeutic drug monitoring Therapeutic drug monitoring requires repeated drug monitoring through testing of a blood sample for the drug of interest. This can be unpleasant and very painful for individuals, especially if there is extensive sampling of the blood. A diffusion-based, continuous-monitoring system is used to monitor the effectiveness of delivering a therapeutic drug. The levels of the therapeutic drug, the metabolite of the therapeutic drug or the substance that is affected by the therapeutic drug is analyzed so as to determine the effectiveness of delivering the therapeutic drug.
5 US6562000 05/13/03 Medtronic Single-use therapeutic substance delivery device with infusion rate control Single-use devices are typically configured with a preset infusion rate and hence there is a need for variable infusion rate controlled drug delivery device. The single-use therapeutic substance delivery device is provided with infusion rate control, is versatile, small, and inexpensive
6 US7780981 08/24/10 Chrono Therapeutics Biosynchronous transdermal drug delivery Failure to comply with a dosing regimen - rigid dosing schedule, forgetfulness or denial of a medical condition; There is a need for a non-invasive, reliable means of delivering drugs compounds in precisely timed and measured doses-without causing any patient inconvenience An automated and pre-programmable transdermal drug administration system that can synchronize and tailor drug administration to the human body’s circadian rhythms to deliver varying dosages at varying times. This minimizes negative side effects, and increases efficacy of the dosing regimen.
7 US7291497 06/11/07 Theranos Medical device for analyte monitoring and drug delivery Need for point of care devices that can detect biological macromolecular activity or drug concentration levels and accordingly administer a specific therapeutic agent at a localized site, within the body, in response to changes in biological macromolecular activity or drug concentration levels. Medical device with a biometric recognition device capable of obtaining and comparing physical parameter data of an interaction between the disease marker biological analyte with the bio-active agent and a therapeutic agent releasing device that controls the release of the therapeutic agent from the reservoirs.
8 US7236821 06/26/07 Cardiac Pacemakers Chronically-implanted device for sensing and therapy Conventional cardiac stimulus devices do not monitor the mechanical performance of the heart; Leads used in conjunction with implanted pacemakers and defibrillators are implanted in a relatively few preselected sites in the heart which are not necessarily the optimal sites; The implanted leads occupy a relatively large volume in the blood vessels through which they are passed and sometimes have to be steered along circuitous routes; A chronically-implanted device that is capable of providing sensing functions such as mechanical, electrical and chemical sensing functions as well as drug-eluting therapy functions. The device is capable of being implanted in a large number of desirable locations using less invasive procedures.
9 US7052251 05/30/06 Medtronic Minimed Shape memory alloy wire driven positive displacement micropump with pulsatile output Need for a more inconspicuous and less cumbersome infusion devices that are inexpensive, reusable and disposable Miniature fluid pump that is driven by a shape memory alloy wire to produce a pulsatile output and are constructed almost entirely from plastic components at an extremely low cost. The device require very little power to operate and are especially useful for long term pump applications. The device include a multi-day disposable device that employs a collapsible drug fluid reservoir bag and a reusable electronics module to control fluid delivery.
10 US20100069888 03/18/10 None Intelligent medical device system for personalized medicine applications The implantable medical devices are not "intelligent"but they are simple deterministic systems; They are also single function devices focused on a specific narrow medical problem and do not combine diagnostic and therapeutic functionality; The devices are not useful in personalized medicine, which require complex analysis and targeting of individual therapies to unique problem sets. The iMD system diagnoses neurological, cardiovascular, immune, endocrine and cancer pathologies and develops and applies solution options in real time to each of these subsystems or to all of them simultaneously. The system uses a combination of diagnostic and therapeutic modules in multiple iMDs in a network to identify and apply remedies to pathologies. The iMD system uses a variety of therapeutic modalities, including gene, RNAi and protein therapies, to solve complex medical problems.

Market Analysis

MEMS

  • MEMS is expected to grow from $8 billion in sales in 2010 to $16.4 billion by 2015, according to Yole Développement, a market research firm based in Lyon, France. The forecast reflects a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 15 percent.
  • iSuppli Corp., a market research firm based in El Segundo, Calif., forecasts MEMS device sales to climb from more than $6 billion in 2010 to about $10 billion in 2014, representing a CAGR of 11.6 percent. And it’s possible that growth rate could continue through 2020, bringing the MEMS market to more than $20 billion.Source
  • One difference in the two forecasts is emerging MEMS markets in borderline device like electronic-compasses, which Yole counts but iSuppli does not include. Also, iSuppli only counts microfluidic devices cast on silicon substrates, whereas Yole includes microfluidics on polymer and glass substrates. Source

  • Major changes such as an aging population and growing obesity issues in many countries (leading for example to diabetes or other disorders) are impacting the medical MEMS market. These and other factors are among the motivations for making treatments less invasive or for monitoring the movements of the elderly. MEMS used in insulin pumps increase the efficacy and comfort of insulin drug delivery, for instance, while accelerometers monitor elderly people, tirelessly watching their movements, their position or presence in a bed, if they fall, and so on.
  • Pressure sensors monitor gases during surgical operations or the treatment of sleep apnea. Accelerometers and gyroscopes assist surgeons by removing shake during precise operations. Emerging applications include implantable wireless pressure sensors, which are showing great promise in monitoring tell tale pressure buildup following heart surgery and are used for post-op monitoring of aneurisms. As a result markets for medical diagnostics and drug delivery devices enjoy 34% and 32% CAGR respectively from 2009 to 2014. Source
  • The global market for MEMS used in medical applications is forecasted to reach $430 million by 2014, up from $229 million in 2009, equating to a CAGR of 13 percent, as shown in the figure.
