Ultra Wideband (UWB) Radar is a high-resolution radar for short distance detection which uses signals transmitted and received by each antennas in order to detect a target. It is possible to detect the respiration and heartbeat of a person without contact It is getting more and more often utilized since it is not affected by physical environment. In this paper, we implement an algorithm to detect human respiration and heartbeat rate using UWB radar signal. We process radar signals reflected from human body using Median filter, Kalman filter, Band Pass filter and so on. We also use CZT to extract breathing and heart rate. ECG (Electrocardiogram) was used for comparison of heartbeat data and we confirm that each data of ECG and UWB Radar were more than 98% identical each other.

1) It was attempted to clarify the sites of action of central (either intraventricular or intracisternal) norepinephrine(NE) and clonidine to cause cardiac slowing and hypotension in urethane-anesthetized rabbits. 2) NE produced cardiac slowing but indistinct effect on blood pressure. Clonidine produced cardiac slowing and hypotension. 3) Intraventricular and intracisternal administration of NE, clonidine, phenylephrine and isoproterenol did not make difference in their effects, except that the onset of cardiac slowing by intracisternal NE was more rapid than intraventricular NE. 4) Upon repeated administration of NE at the intervals of about two hours, blood pressure responses changed to the pressor ones, the cardiac slowing unchanged. By this procedure the cardiac slowing as well as the hypotension by clonidine were gradually diminished. 5) Clonidine, when given during the NE effects were persisting, did not produce the lowering of blood pressure and further decrease of heart rate. NE, when given during the clonidine effects were persisting, produced marked elevation of blood pressure but did not produce further decrease of heart rate. 6) After intraventricular administration of regitine or desmethylimipramine, the cardiac slowing effect of NE and the clonidine effects were not observed, whereas NE produced marked elevation of blood pressure. 7) Reserpinized rabbits showed pressor and cardiac accelerating responses to NE; slight pressor, and little cardiac responses to clonidine. 8) It seems that the cardiac slowing by both clonidine and NE as well as the hypotetsion by clonidine are mediated by the presynaptic ${\alpha}$-adrenoceptor in the brain but the pressor responses to NE and clonidine are mediated by other site(s) than the presynaptic ones.

성인의 정서에 따른 심혈관계 반응의 변화에 대한 연구는 많이 있으나, 아동 정서에 따른 심혈관계 반응에 대한 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 본 연구실에서 개발한 자극을 이용하여 유발된 정서에 따른 심혈관계 반응의 차이를 규명하고자 한다. 복합자극으로 구성된 아동용 정서유발 프로토콜을 사용하여 아동에게 다섯가지 정서(기쁨, 슬픔, 분노, 스트레스, 무료함)를 유발시키는 동안 심혈관계 반응(ECG, PPG)을 측정하였다. 실험참여 아동은 만 5세에서 9세 사이의 아동으로 모두 141명이며, 분석에는 132명 (학령전 남: 30/ 학령전 여: 33/ 학령후 남:37, 학령후 여:32)의 데이터가 활용되었다. 분석에 사용하나 심혈관계 생리반응 변수는 심박률(HR), 호흡주기 관련 심박률변화 (RSA), 심박률분산(HRV), 심박률분산의 고주파수성분 (HFHRV)과 저주파수성분 (LF HRV), 혈류량 (FPV)이었다. 이 변수들 중 심박률, R파 간 간격을 기준으로 한 심박률변산의 고주파수 성분과 저주파수 성분, 그리고 혈류량에서 정서에 따라 유의미한 차이가 나타났다. 심박률은 기쁨, 슬픔을 스트레스나 무료함과 구분할 수 있고, 분노를 다른 정서들과 구분하는 것으로 나타났다. 혈류량 역시 분노와 다른 정서들 간에 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 고주파수 성분은 무료함을 나머지 정서들과, 저주파수 성분은 슬픔, 스트레스를 무료함과 구별할 수 있었다. 정서에 따라서는, 기쁨과 분노 유발정서에서는 심박률과 혈류량이 감소하였고, 슬픔은 심박률과 저주파수성분이 감소하였으며, 스트레스는 독특하게 심박률이 감소하였다. 그리고 무료함에서는 고주파수성분과 저주파수성분은 증가하고 혈류량은 감소하는 특징적인 양상을 보였다. 결론적으로 본 연구는 심혈관계 반응을 이용하여 아동정서를 구분하는 것이 가능함을 밝혔다.공을 제외한 BH-2, BH-3호공에서의 이방성 투수량계수텐서값은 이 논문의 가정인 대수층이 이방성이고 균질하다는 가정에 일치하지 않았다. 따라서 원형좌표계에 도시하였을 때 다른 공에 비해서 비균질성이 심한 결과로 인해 이방성타원체 에서 많이 벗어남을 보였다. 이로인해 3개의 공 BH-1, BH-4, BH-5호공을 사용하여 대수층의 이방성을 분석하여 보았다. BH-1호공에서의 $T_{{\varepsilon}{\varepsilon}}$는 171.90 $m^2$/day, $T_{ηη}$는 71.0l $m^2$/day이고 주 텐서방향은 Nl5.39$^{\circ}$ E로 나타났다. BH-4호공의 $T_{{\varepsilon}{\varepsilon}}$는 268.20 $m^2$/day, $T_{ηη}$는 28.75 $m^2$/day이고 주 텐서방향은 N7.55$^{\circ}$E이며 BH-5호공에서의 $T_{{\varepsilon}{\varepsilon}}$는 168.40 $m^2$/day, $T_{ηη}$는 66.80 $m^2$/day이고 주 텐서방향은 N76.59$^{\circ}$E로 나타났다. 이처럼 연구지역에서의 각각의 공에 대한 투수량계수텐서는 서로 다르게 나타났으며 이에 따른 주 텐서방향도 서로 다름을 알 수 있다..

The purpose of this study is to investigate the correlation and agreement between heart rates of Polar heart rate monitor and a smartwatch in order to confirm the accuracy of heart rate measured by the smartwatch. Heart rates of fifty college students were measured for a total of 12 minutes under four conditions: rest, walk, Zumba, and cycle. As a result of correlation and agreement analysis between heart rates of the two devices, correlation coefficient (r) was 0.995 at rest, 0.991 at walk, 0.923 at Zumba, 0.932 at cycle, and Bland-Altman ratio (BA ratio) was 0.02 at rest, 0.03 at walk, 0.06 at Zumba, 0.04 at cycle. Heart rate from smartwatch showed high correlation and agreement with heart rate from Polar in all conditions, representing that smartwatch can be considered an reliable apparatus to measure hear rate.

Autonomic nervous system (ANS) acts as a control system functioning largely below the level of consciousness, and controls visceral functions. The activity of the ANS has been assessed by means of the heart rate variability (HRV). It has been reported that HRV is dependent on sex, age, body mass index, and smoking, etc. However, the effects of posture and sleep deprivation on HRV have rarely been reported. Objective of our work was to find out which posture is appropriate for stable HRV. We measured the number of sleep deprivation and HRV using power spectrum in six stages for 30 minutes. Increased low frequency (LF) power and high frequency (HF) power indicate enhanced sympathetic and parasympathetic activity, respectively. We determined the LF/HF ratio to minimize individual difference. It was found that sleep deprivation by awakening up subjects was affected by posture, which resulted in changes of LF/HF. Although LF/HF varied with time, it was more stable in sitting than in supine. In conclusion, we recommend sitting posture when measuring HRV because of less sleep deprivation resulting in less variation in LF/HF.

Recently, heart rate signal, which is one of biological signals, have been used in various fields related to healthcare. Conventionally, most of the proposed heart rate signal detection methods are contact type methods, but there is a problem of discomfort that the subject have to contact with the device. In order to solve the problem, detection study by non-contact method has been progressed recently. The detected heart rate signal can be used for finger vein liveness detection and various application using heart rate. In this paper, we propose a method to obtain heart rate signal by using finger vein imaging system. The proposed method detected the signal from the changes of the brightness value in the time domain of the infrared finger vein images and converted it into the frequency domain using the image processing algorithm. After the conversion, we removed the noise not related to the heart rate signal through band-pass filtering. In order to evaluate the accuracy of the signal, we analyzed the correlation with the signal obtained simultaneously with the finger vein acquisition device and contact type PPG sensor approved by KFDA. As a result, it was possible to confirm that the heart rate signal detected in non-contact method through the finger vein image coincides with the waveform of actual heart rate signal.

Photoplethysmogram(PPG) is the method to obtain the biomedical signal using the linear relationships between the blood volume for changing the cardiac contraction and relaxation and the amount of light for absorbing the hemoglobin in the blood. In this paper, we proposed the analyzed results which show the heart rate variability and the distribution of heart rate for before and after using PPG. Moreover, this paper designed and implemented the system based on personal computer to predict cardiovascular disease in advance using the analyzed results for the autonomic balance from taking the spectral analysis of heart rate and the state of the blood vessel for analyzing APG(acceleration plethysmogram).

In this paper, we design a facial facial image data collection system for heart rate measurement using a web camera. The design content of this paper is a function of collecting user face image information using a web camera and measuring heart rate using the user's face image information. There is a possibility that an error may occur due to non-contact heart rate measurement using a web camera. Therefore, in this paper, it is to be used for correcting heart rate program errors through classification of data in cases of error and normal. The data in case of error can be used for the purpose of reducing the error. Experiments were conducted on the proposed ideas and designed in this paper. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that it operates normally.
