In this paper, we look into previous research in relation to each processing step for ECG diagnosis and propose detection and classification method of arrhythmia using rhythm features of ECG signal. Rhythm features for distribution of rhythm and heartbeat such as identity, regularity, etc. are extracted in feature extraction, and rhythm type is classified using rule-base constructed in advance for features of rhythm section in rhythm classification. Experimental results for all of rhythm types in the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database show detection performance of 100% for arrhythmia with only normal rhythm rule and applicability of classification for rhythm types with arrhythmia rhythm rules.

심장의 활성 근육의 움직임에 의하여 발생되는 전기적 변화량을 나타내는 심전도는 부정맥 또는 허혈성 심장질환을 진단하는데 널리 활용되고 있다. 특히 심실빈맥(Ventricular Tachycardia) 또는 심실세동(Ventricular Fibrillation)과 같이 치명적인 심장리듬이 발생하기 이전에, 심실조기수축(Ventricular Premature Contraction)을 검출하여 생명을 위협할 수 있는 부정맥을 조기에 진단할 수 있는 연구들이 일부 진행되고 있다. 이에 따라서 본 연구에서는 심전도 신호의 R-R 간격 정보와 R-peak 정보의 진위성을 판단하여 PVC 부정맥 패턴뿐만 아니라 PVC 파형이 연속적으로 진행되는 PVC-RUNs을 효율적으로 검출할 수 있는 부정맥 진단 알고리즘을 제안하고자 하였다.

심실 빈맥은 심실에서 비정상적인 전기자극 발생으로 인하여 심박수가 분당 $100{\sim}120$회를 초과하는 부정맥 증상을 일컫는다. 심실 빈맥이 발생하는 경우 심박출량이 감소하고, 폐에는 미처 나가지 못한 피가 고이는 경우도 발생하여 심부전증이 나타나거나 심실 세동으로 발전하여 사망에 이를 수 있는, 매우 위험한 부정맥 중의 하나이므로 심실 빈맥 검출은 매우 중요한 사안이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 R-R 간격 정보를 이용하여 심실 빈맥 부정맥 신호를 실시간으로 검출할 수 있는 신호처리 알고리즘을 구현하고자 하였다.

진행파형 광 검출기는 전기적으로 분포된(distributed) 구조이므로, 그 대역폭은 RC 시정수에 의해 제한되기보다는 광 흡수계수와 광과 마이크로파 사이의 진행속도 차에 의해 제한된다$^{(1)(2)}$ . 진행파형 광검출기에서 광과 마이크로파 사이의 속도 부정합이 대역폭에 미치는 영향은 속도 부정합 임펄스 반응(velocity-mismatch impulse response)의 제시를 통해 이미 분석되었다$^{(1)(2)}$ . 그러나, 대역폭에 제한에 큰 영향을 미칠 것이 예상되는 진성 흡수 영역에서의 전송자 표류 시간은 아직 구체적으로 고려되지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 진성 흡수영역에서의 전송자 표류 시간을 고려하였다. 그 전이 시간(transit time)을 고려하기 위해 속도 부정합 임펄스 반응을 수정하여 제시하였다. 새로히 제시된 임펄스 반응은 광 도파로 해석과 진성 영역 분할에 의해 모델화 되었으며, 이 임펄스 반응을 통해 전이 시간과 속도 부정합이 대역폭에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다.

This paper proposes a novel algorithm to assess the abnormal heart beats such as PVC (Premature Ventricular Contraction) and its subsequent RUNs. Our Arrhythmic detection scheme is based on only the R-R Interval features extracted from ECG waveforms and MIT-BIH arrhythmia database is evaluated to validate the efficiency of our algorithm in terms of sensitivity, specificity, FPR(%) and FNR(%).

An electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the most important biosignals, and in particular, continuous ECG monitoring is very important in patients with arrhythmia. There are many different types of arrhythmia (sinus node, sinus tachycardia, atrial premature beat (APB), and ventricular fibrillation) depending on the cause, and continuous ECG monitoring during daily life is very important for early diagnosis of arrhythmias and setting treatment directions. The ECG signal of arrhythmia patients is very unstable, and it is difficult to detect the R-peak point, which is a key feature for automatic arrhythmias detection. In this study, we develped a continuous measuring Holter ECG monitoring device and software for analysis and confirmed the utility of R-peak of the ECG signal with MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. In future studies, it needs the validation of algorithms and clinical data for morphological classification and prediction of arrhythmias due to various etiologies.

Arrhythmia electrocardiogram signal contains a specific unusual heartbeat with abnormal morphology. Because unusual heartbeat is useful for diagnosis and classification of various diseases, such as arrhythmia, detection of unusual heartbeat from the arrhythmic ECG signal is very important. Amplitude and kurtosis at R-peak point and RR interval are characteristics of ECG signal on R-wave. In this paper, we provide a method for detecting unusual heartbeat based on these. Through the value of the attribute deviates more from the average value if unusual heartbeat is more certainly, the proposed method detects unusual heartbeat in order using the mean and standard deviation. From 15 ECG signals of MIT-BIH arrhythmia database which has R-wave distortion, we compare the result of conventional method which uses the fixed threshold value and the result of proposed method. Throughout the experiment, the sensitivity is significantly increased to 97% from 50% using the proposed method.

In this paper, unusual waveform detection algorithm based on Refractory Period in arrhythmia ECG signal is proposed. Most of arrhythmia ECG signals consist of unusual waveforms with average 10% rate. Thus tremendous benefit can be obtained in terms of time and cost by providing unusual waveform samples reduced more than 90% to medical staffs who have to monitor and analyze for a long time. The proposed algorithm detects the R-peak using the features of R wave and variable refractory period. For the detected R-peak, unusual waveforms are found using means and standard deviation of electric potential and kurtosis of the R-peaks which are not included in unusual waveform. The proposed algorithm was applied to all records of the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database and showed more than average 90% of compression ratio.

심실조기수축(PVC: Premature Ventricular Contraction)은 성인에게서 가장 흔하게 발생되는 심장 부정맥 증상 중의 하나이다. 심실조기수축 부정맥이 자주 발현되는 사람의 경우 관상 동맥질환, 고혈압 등의 심혈관계 질환이 진행되고 있을 가능성이 많고, 심실빈맥이나 심실세동으로 전이되는 경우 심정지 등을 유발하여 사망에 이르기 때문에 지속적으로 관찰이 필요한 증상이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 R-R 간격 정보를 이용하여 심실조기수축 부정맥 증상을 실시간으로 검출할 수 있는 신호처리 알고리즘을 구현하고자 하였다.

A 3-GSymbol/s/lane transceiver, which supports the mobile industry processor interface (MIPI) C-physical layer (PHY) specification version 1.1, is proposed. It performs channel mismatch correction to improve the signal integrity that is deteriorated by using three-level signals over three channels. The proposed channel mismatch correction is performed by detecting channel mismatches in the receiver and adjusting the delay times of the transmission data in the transmitter according to the detection result. The channel mismatch detection in the receiver is performed by comparing the phases of the received signals with respect to the pre-determined data pattern transmitted from the transmitter. The proposed MIPI C-PHY receiver is designed using a 65 nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process with 1.2 V supply voltage. The area and power consumption of each transceiver lane are 0.136 ㎟ and 17.4 mW/GSymbol/s, respectively. The proposed channel mismatch correction reduces the time jitter of 88.6 ps caused by the channel mismatch to 34.9 ps.
