In this paper, we develop a new conversion method for implementing binary ECG(Electrocardiogram) conversion scheme to improve our previous research works that supported the conversion of binary ECG files into HL7 aECG for enhancing interoperability of ECG data. HL7 aECG is a XML-based standard for interoperability of ECG waveform. To improve the performance of ECG data conversion, we utilize a compilation-based ECG conversion method on binary ECG files. Our new method supports both flexibility of BED-based ECG conversion mechanism and the performance of direct conversion mechanism.

An ECG data compression algorithM using max-min slope update is proposed and a real time 3 channel ECG transmission system is implemented using the proposed algorithm. In order to effectively compress ECG data, we compare a threshold value with the max-min slope difference (MMSD) which is updated at each sample values. If this MMSD value is smaller than the threshold value, then the data is compressed. Conversely, when the MMSD value is larger than threshold value, the data is transmitted after storing the value and the length between the data which is beyond previous threshold level. As a result, it can accurately compress both the region of QRS, P, and T wave that has fast-changing and the region of the base line that slope is changing slow. Therefore, it Is possible to enhance the compression rate and the percent roms difference. In addition, because of the simplicity, this algorithm is more suitable for real-time implementation.

본 논문은 0-5 볼트의 범위에서 실시간 아날로그 ECG 신호를 생성하는 FPGA 하드웨어 기반 ECG 시뮬레이터를 설계하고 기능 및 특성을 기술하였다. 시뮬레이터에 의해 생성된 ECG 신호는 실험실 실험, 의료 기기 교정 및 연구에 사용되거나 다양하게 응용할 수 있다. 시뮬레이터의 ECG 신호는 신호 데이터를 생성하기 위하여 기존의 24bit 양자화로 획득한 후 실 데이터로 사용할 때에는 1kHz의 샘플링과 8비트로 분해, 양자화 되었다. 제안 시뮬레이터는 xilix Spartan-3를 이용하여 구현하였으며 PC와 설계 FPGA 시뮬레이터 간에 RS-232를 통하여 데이터를 전송할 수 있도록 하였다. 전송된 데이터는 메모리에 저장하고 저장된 데이터는 DAC(0808) 통하여 아날로그 ECG 신호로 출력되게 하였다. 또한 두 개의 버튼 수위를 통하여 심박수(HR)를 UP-DOWN할 수 있도록 하였다. 설계된 시스템의 평가를 위하여 기존의 심전도 입력을 사용하여 출력신호와 QRS파형의 획득을 위한 미분회로 통과 결과를 평가한 결과 적합한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

In this paper, the abdomen ECG(AECG) is employed to measure the mother's ECG instead of the conventioanl thoracic ECG measurement. The fetus ECG signal can be extracted from the AECG using an algorithm that utilizes the mobile fetal ECG measurement platform, which is based on the BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). The algorithm has been implemented by using a replacement processor processed directly from the platform BLE instead of the large statistical data processing required in the ICA(Independent component analysis). The proposed algorithm can be implemented on a mobile BLE wireless ECG system hardware platform to process the maternal ECG. Wireless technology can realize a compact, low-power radio system for short distance communication and the IOT(Intenet of Things) enables the transmission of real-time ECG data. It was also implemented in the form of a compact module in order for mothers to be able to download and store the collected ECG data without having to interrupt or move the logger, and later link the module to a computer for downloading and analyzing the data. A mobile ECG measurement prototype is manufactured and tested to measure the FECG for pregnant women. The experimental results verify a real-time FECG extraction capability for the proposed system. In this paper, we propose an ECG measurement system that shows approximately 91.65% similarity to the MIT database and the conventional algorithm and SNR performance about 10% better.

Small size real-time ECG signal analysis function by QRS-complex detection was put into sensor nodes. Wireless sensor nodes attached on the patient’s body transmit ECG data continuously in normal u-healthcare system. So there are heavy communication traffics between sensor nodes and gateways. New developed platform for real-time analysis of ECG signals on sensor node can be used as an advanced diagnosis and alarming system for healthcare. Sensor node does not need to transmit ECG data all the time in wireless sensor network and to server PC via gateway. When sensor node detects suspicion or abnormality in ECG, then the ECG data in the network was transmitted to the server PC for further powerful analysis. This system can reduce data packet overload and save some power in wireless sensor network. It can also increase the server performance.

Analyzing the ECG signal, we can find heart disease, for example, arrhythmia and myocardial infarction, etc. Particularly, detecting arrhythmia is more important, because serious arrhythmia can take away the life from patients within ten minutes. In this paper, we would like to introduce the signal processing for ECG analysis and the device made for wireless communication of ECG data. In the signal processing, the wavelet transform decomposes the ECG signal into high and low frequency components using wavelet function. Recomposing the high frequency bands including QRS complex, we can detect QRS complex and eliminate the noise from the original ECG signal. To recognize the ECG signal pattern, we adopted the polynomial approximation partially and statistical method. The ECG signal is divided into small parts based on QRS complex, and then, each part is approximated to the polynomials. Comparing the approximated ECG pattern with the database, we can detect and classify the heart disease. The ECG detection device consists of amplifier, filters, A/D converter and RF module. After amplification and filtering, the ECG signal is fed through the A/D converter to be digitalized. The digital ECG data is transmitted to the personal computer through the RF transceiver module and serial port.
