AB  - We propose a new UWB modulation technique for wireless optical communications in transcutaneous biotelemetry. The solution, based on the generation of sub-nanoseconds laser pulses, allows for a high data rate link whilst achieving a significant power reduction (energy per bit) compared to the state-ofthe- art. These features make this particularly suitable for emerging biomedical applications such as implantable neural/biosensor systems. The relatively simple architecture consists of a transmitter and receiver that can be integrated in a standard CMOS technology in a compact Silicon footprint (lower than 1mm^2 in a 0.18μm technology). These parts, optimised for low-voltage/low-power operation, include coding and decoding digital systems, biasing and driving analogue circuits for laser pulse generation and photodiode signal conditioning. Experimental findings with prototype PCBs have validated the new paradigm showing the system capabilities to achieve a BER less than 10^-9 with data rate up to 250Mbps and estimated total power consumption lower than 5mW.
