[Abstract] Objective: In this study, a multi-channel receive-only coil with high filling coefficient and SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) was designed for a given macaque head model. Furthermore, the feasibility of the design was examined using simulation test.Materials and Methods: We use electromagnetic field and high-speed circuit simulation software to examine the tuning and the decoupling effect of the multi-channel coils and to optimize our design.Results: We calculated the decoupling effects of four-channel coil with LC-decoupling network and overlapping method, and further confirmed the final design and documented the electronic characters of the receive-only coil.Conclusions: This paper illustrated the feasibility to design a multi-channel receiver coil for a given macaque with simulation test. In addition, the parameters of our design could provide a protocol for other coil designs, which could reduce the research cost.
