최근 운전자의 건강상태 모니터링 및 졸음운전 방지를 위한 자동차용 부품관련 센서개발 및 시스템 연구들이 국내외에서 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 논문은 이러한 운전자의 건강 상태 및 졸음운전을 점검하기 위해 체스트벨트 심전도 (ECG)와 손목착용형 산소포화도 (SpO2) 센서를 제작하여 생체신호를 측정하였으며, 측정된 심전도, 산소 포화도, 그리고 심장박동수 신호는 무선센서네트워크를 통해 수집, 전송 및 모니터링 등의 처리를 가능하게 하여 운전자에게 안전운행을 위한 정보를 제공하도록 하였다. 원격지인 서버 PC와 연결된 베이스스테이션으로 수집된 심전도와 용적맥파 신호에서 HRV (Heart Rate Variability, 심박변이도) 신호를 검출하였으며, 검출된 HRV 신호를 시간 영역과 주파수 영역에서의 해석을 통하여 운전자의 스트레스 지수 및 졸음 상태의 실시간 모니터링 및 졸음상태의 운전자에게 주의를 제공하기 위하여 알람을 제공하는 형태의 지능형 모니터링 시스템을 구현하였다.

심장질환은 질병특성상 예방적인 처치가 무엇보다 중요하다. 그러나 현재 개발된 장치들은 환자가 통신장치를 이용하여 집 근처 100m 이내의 거리에서만 통신이 가능하고 환자가 이상을 느껴 스스로 버튼을 누르는 경우에만 서비스가 가능한 단점이 있다. 이러한 단점을 해결하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 상용 이동통신망을 이용하여 이상이 있는 ECG 신호를 자동으로 병원의 PC로 전송하는 심장질환 관리 시스템을 설계 및 구현한다. 개발된 시스템을 이용하여 실험한 결과 환자의 ECG 파형은 왜곡 없이 전송되어 데이터베이스에 저장됨을 확인하였다. 또한 SMS로 전송되는 데이터의 양을 64진법을 사용함으로써 16진법을 사용할 때보다 약 30% 이상을 줄일 수 있었다.

In this paper, we proposed a new algorithm for the separation of fetal ECG from single channel abdominal ECG. The algorithm consists of a stage of demixing vector calculation for initial signal and a stage of fetal beat detection for the rest of signal. The demixing vector was obtained by applying independent component analysis technique to projected signals into time-frequency domain. For the test of this algorithm, simulation signals, De Lathauwer's data and some measured data, which was acquired from 8 healthy volunteers whose pregnant periods ranged from 22 weeks to 35 weeks and whose ages from 27 to 37, were used. For each data, the accuracy of fetal beat detection was $100\%$ and with the location of fetal beats, fetal heart rate variability and morphology could be offered. In conclusion, this proposed algorithm showed the possibility of fetal beat separation with a single channel abdominal ECG and it might be adopted to a fetal health monitoring system, by which a single channel abdominal ECG is acquired.

This paper presents a real time FECG signal monitoring system in which an adaptive multichannel noise canceller is implemented using a Texas Instruments TMS32020 digital signal processor. Abdominal ECG signal is applied as the desired output and 3 chest ECG signals as the reference input signals of the adaptive multichannel noise canceller whose coefficients are updated using the LMS algorithms.

For the diagnosis of arrhythmia in the heart system, the QRS complex of ECG signals is used in many cases. The rejection of the noise in ECG signals is important to acquisition of exact QRS complex. This paper presents some experimental results about instantaneous bandwidth estimation and noise rejection of ECG signals with the purpose of rejection of the 60 Hz power noise and the motion artifacts such as EMG signals and contact noise. ECG signals corrupted by noise are cleaned by using the variable bandwidth filter. For the filtering of ECG signals with noise, the instantaneous bandwidth of the signals is estimated by analysis of time-frequency representation of ECG signal.

A wireless 3 channel ECG monitoring system was developed so that it could monitor the health and movement state during subject's daily life. The developed system consists of a wireless biomedical signal acquisition device, a personal healthcare server, and a remote medical server. Three experiments were performed to evaluate the accuracy, reliability and operability, applicability during daily life of the developed device. First, ECG signals were measured using the developed device and commercial reference device during sitting and marking time and compared to verify the accuracy of R-R intervals. Second, the reliable data transmission to remote server was verified on two types of simulated emergency event using patient simulator. Third, during five types of motion in daily life, the accuracy of data transmission to remote server using CDMA network was verified on two types of event occurring. By acquiring and comparing subject's biomedical signal and motion signal, the accuracy, reliability and operability, applicability during daily life of the developed device were verified. In addition, PDA-phone based wireless system enabled subject to be monitored without any constraints. Therefore, the developed system is expected to be applicable for monitoring the aged and chronic diseased people and giving first-aid in emergency.

Internet of Things(IoT)-devices are now expanding inter-connecting networking technologies to invent healthcare monitoring system especially for assessing physiological conditions of the chronically-ill patients those with cardiovascular diseases. Hence, IoT system is expected to be utilized for home healthcare by dedicating the original usage of IoT devices to collect the biomedical data such as electrocardiogram(ECG) and photoplethysmography(PPG) signal. The aim of this work is to implement health monitoring system by integrating IoT devices with Raspberry-pi components to measure and analyze ECG and the multi-channel PPG signals. The acquired data and fiducial features from our system can be transmitted to mobile devices via wireless networking technology to support the concept of tele-monitoring services based on IoT devices.

A distributed healthcare monitoring system prototype for clinical and trauma patients was developed, using wireless sensor network node. The proposed system aimed to measure various vital physiological health parameters like ECG and body temperature of patients and elderly persons, and transfer his/her health status wirelessly in Ad-hoc network to remote base station which was connected to doctor's PDA/PC or to a hospital's main Server using wireless sensor node. The system also aims to save the cost of healthcare facility for patients and the operating power of the system because sensor network is deployed widely and the distance from sensor to base station was shorter than in general centralized system. The wireless data communication will follow IEEE 802.15.4 frequency communication with ad-hoc routing thus enabling every motes attached to patients, to form a wireless data network to send data to base-station, providing mobility and convenience to the users in home environment.

본 연구는 무선 센서네트워크를 활용하여 환자 또는 고령자를 위한 ECG, 활동량 모니터링 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다. 심전도 변화는 사람의 활동, 뛰거나 걷기 등의 움직임에 따라 조금씩 변화한다. 그래서 종종 자세, 행동에 따른 ECG변화의 기록은 중요시되며 이를 위해 매일 활동하는 환자의 활동 모니터링 시스템이 필요하다. ECG와 활동량 데이터는 자동 알림기능을 지원하는 시스템에 저장되고 긴급 상황 발생 시 보다 빠르게 초기 활동을 할 수 있게 한다. 몸에서 계측된 ECG 데이터와 활동량 데이터는 무선 센서네트워크를 통해 베이스테이션과 연결된 서버에 전송되며 서버에서 비정상적 상황을 판별시 발생 의사의 PDA 또는 서버에 데이터를 전송한다.
