According to the rapid development of the information and communication technology, the demand on the efficient compression technology for the multimedia data is increased magnificently. In this Paper, we designed new compression algorithm structure using wavelet base for the compression of ECG signal and audible signal data. We examined the efficiency of the compression between 2-band structure and wavelet packet structure, and investigated the efficiency and reconstruction error by wavelet base function using Daubechies wavelet coefficient and Coiflet coefficient for each structure. Finally, data were compressed further more using Huffman code, and resultant Compression Rate(CR) and Percent Root Mean Square difference(PRD) were compared with those of existent DCT.

The Holter monitoring system is a widely used noninvasive diagnostic tool for ambulatory patient who may be at risk from latent life-threatening cardiac abnormalities. In this paper, we design a high performance intelligent holter monitoring system which is characterized by the small-sized and the low-power consumption. The system hardware consists of one-chip microcontroller(68HC11E9), ECG preprocessing circuit, and flash memory card. ECG preprocessing circuit is made of ECG preamplifier with gain of 250, 500 and 1000, the bandpass filter with bandwidth of 0.05-100Hz, the auto-balancing circuit and the saturation-calibrating circuit to eliminate baseline wandering, ECG signal sampled at 240 samples/sec is converted to the digital signal. We use a linear recursive filter and preprocessing algorithm to detect the ECG parameters which are QRS complex, and Q-R-T points, ST-level, HR, QT interval. The long-term acquired ECG signals and diagnostic parameters are compressed by the MFan(Modified Fan) and the delta modulation method. To easily interface with the PC based analyzer program which is operated in DOS and Windows, the compressed data, that are compatible to FFS(flash file system) format, are stored at the flash memory card with SBF(symmetric block format).

In emergency telemedicine system based on wireless communication system with limited transmission capacity, it is necessary to transmit the biological data (ECG, BP, Respiration, $SpO_2$) of the patient continuously and reliably in real time. For this service, it is necessary to data compression and error control. In this study, we designed an protocol for error control in application layer and implemented it on the biological data transmission program for an emergency telemedicine system based on wireless data communication system.

본 논문은 반복 수축 변환의 프랙탈(fractal) 이론에 근거한 심전도 데이터 압축에 관한 연구이다. 심전도 데이터에 반복 함수계(Iterated Function System : IFS) 모델을 적용하여 신호 자체의 자기 유사성(self-similarity)을 반복 수축 변환으로 표현하고, 그 매개변수만을 저장한다. 재구성시는 변환 매개변수를 반복 적용하여 원래의 신호에 근사되어지는 값을 얻게 된다. 심전도 데이타는 부분적으로 자기 유사성을 갖는다고 보고, 부분 자기-유사 프랙탈 모델(piecewise self-affine fractal model)로 표현될 수 있다. 이 모델은 신호를 특정 구간들로 나누어 각 구간들에 대해 최적 프랙탈 보간(fractal interpolation)을 구하고 그 중 오차가 가장 작은 매개변수만을 추출하여 저장한다. 이 방법을 심전도 데이타에 적용한 결과 특정 압축율에 대해 아주 적은 재생오차 (percent root-mean-square difference : PRD)를 얻을 수 있었다.
