Because arrhythmia occurs irregularly, it should be examined for at least 24 hours for accurate diagnosis. For this reason, this paper developed firmware software for arrhythmia detection and prevented consumption of temporal and human resources and enabled continuous management and early diagnosis. Prior to the experiment, the interval between the R peaks of the QRS Complex was calculated using the Pan-Tompkins algorithm. The developed firmware software designed and implemented an algorithm to detect arrhythmia such as tachycardia, bradycardia, ventricular tachycardia, persistent tachycardia, and non-persistent tachycardia, and a data transmission format to monitor the collected data based on BLE. As a result of the experiment, arrhythmia was found in real time according to the change in BPM as designed in this paper. And the data quality for BLE communication was verified by comparing the sensor's serial communication value with the Android application reception value. In the future, wearable devices for real-time arrhythmia detection will be lightweight and developed firmware software will be applied.

Background: Power spectrum analysis method is a powerful noninvasive tool for quantifying autonomic nervous system activity. In this paper, we developed a data acquistion system for estimating the activity of the autonomic nervous system by the analysis of heart rate and respiratory rate variability using power spectrum analysis. Materials and methods: For the detection of QRS peak and measurement of respiratory rate from patient's ECG, we used low-pass filter and impedence method respectively. This system adopt an isolated power for patient's safety. In this system, two output signals can be obtained: R-R interval heart rate) and respiration rate time series. Experimental ranges are 30-240 BPM for ECG and 15-80 BPM for respiration. Results: The system can acquire two signals accurately both in the experimental test using simulator and in real clinical setting. Conclusion: The system developed in this paper is efficient for the acquisition of heart rate and respiration signals. This system will play a role in research area for improving our understanding of the pathophysiologic involvement of the autonomic nervous system in various disease states.

In this study, we proposed a real-time ECG analytical method for predicting stress and dangerous heart condition using the ECG signal in playing AR/VR device. A real-time diagnosis is used as R-R interval based HRV(:Heart rate variability), BPM(:Beats Per Minitue) and autonomic nervous research with through mapping method of two-dimensional planes. The ECG data were analyzed every 5 minutes and derived from autonomic nervous system diagnosis.

It seems to be dangerous to use a cellular phone while driving since it increases driver's mental stress and makes driver's reaction time slow. This study is to investigate driver's psycho-physiological responses on mobile telephoning while driving. Among the three experimental factors (mobile-phone types, message IODs over mobile-phone, road types), only the message IODs over mobile-phone changed R-R intervals of electrocardiograph significantly. This result suggests that the regulations on the mobile telephoning while driving be changed.

The reduction of pipe-thickness induced by flow accelerated corrosion (FAC) is one of the most serious problems on the maintenance of piping system in nuclear power plants (NNP). If the thickness of a pipe component is reduced below the critical level, it cannot sustain pressure and consequently results in leakage or rupture. For this reason, wall thinning by FAC has been inspected in secondary side piping systems in NPPs. In this research Round Robin Test (RRT) was conducted to verify confidence of wall thinning measurement system in NPP. 12 inspectors from 3 companies participated and 23 specimens were used according to standard practice in RRT. The gage R&R analysis was introduced in regard to repeatability and reproducibility that are affected to measurement system errors. Confidence intervals of thickness measurement system were obtained.

Let (${\Omega}$, $\mathcal{S}$, ${\mu}$) be a probabilistic measure space, ${\varepsilon}{\in}\mathbb{R}$, ${\delta}{\geq}0$, p > 0 be given numbers and let $P{\subset}\mathbb{R}$ be an open interval. We consider a class of functions $f:P{\rightarrow}\mathbb{R}$, satisfying the inequality $$f(EX){\leq}E(f{\circ}X)+{\varepsilon}E({\mid}X-EX{\mid}^p)+{\delta}$$ for each $\mathcal{S}$-measurable simple function $X:{\Omega}{\rightarrow}P$. We show that if additionally the set of values of ${\mu}$ is equal to [0, 1] then $f:P{\rightarrow}\mathbb{R}$ satisfies the above condition if and only if $$f(tx+(1-t)y){\leq}tf(x)+(1-t)f(y)+{\varepsilon}[(1-t)^pt+t^p(1-t)]{\mid}x-y{\mid}^p+{\delta}$$ for $x,y{\in}P$, $t{\in}[0,1]$. We also prove some basic properties of such functions, e.g. the existence of subdifferentials, Hermite-Hadamard inequality.

In this study, we propose the calibration algorithm for the solar channel (550 ${\sim}$ 900 nm) of MTSAT 1R which is the Japanese geostationary satellite launched on 26 Feb. 2005 and located at $140^{\circ}E$. We developed a method utilizing MODIS-derived BRDFs for the solar channel calibration over the bright desert area. Targets are selected based on the desert's brightness, spatial uniformity, temporal stability and spectral stability. The 6S model has been incorporated to account for directional effects of the surface using MODIS-derived BRDF parameters within the spectral interval in interest. Results based on the analysis for the period from November 2007 to June 2008 suggest that MTSAT-1R solar channel measurements have a low bias within 5%.

A continuum structure function(CSF) is a non-decreasing mapping from the unit hypercube to the unit interval. The reliability importance of component $i$ in a CSF at system level ${\alpha}$, $R_i({\alpha})$) say, is zero if and only if component $i$ is almost irrelevant to the system at level ${\alpha}$. A condition to check whether a component is almost irrelevant to the system is presented. It is shown that $R^{(m)}_i({\alpha}){\rightarrow}R_i({\alpha})$ uniformly as $m{\rightarrow}{\infty}$ where each $R^{(m)}_i({\alpha})$ is readily calculated.

Wireless communication for train control is an active research field. The World Railway Federation in Europe developed GSM-R, which integrates the GSM-based voice call standard and train control signals. To provide advanced railway services, the LTE-R wireless communication system was developed in Korea for passenger services and wireless image information required by the railroad industry. Recently, direct communication technology for autonomous train driving has been studied to decrease the driving interval, and research is being conducted on a hyperloop train control system that runs at a maximum speed of 1,220km/h in a subvacuum environment of 0.001 atmosphere. In this paper, we summarize the trends in wireless communication technologies used for GSM-R/LTE-R railway systems. For future wireless communication in railway systems, we discuss autonomous train driving and the hyperloop railway control system, define wireless communication technology, and discuss trends in domestic and foreign technologies.

For the excited states of a hydrogen molecule up to n = 3 active spaces, potential energy curves (PECs) are obtained for values of the internuclear distance R in the interval [0.5, 10] a.u. within an accuracy of $1{\times}10^{-4}$ a.u. (Hartree) compared to the accurate PECs of Kolos, Wolniewicz, and their collaborators by using the multi-reference configuration-interaction method and Kaufmann's Rydberg basis functions. It is found that the accuracy of the PECs can be further improved beyond $1{\times}10^{-4}$ a.u. for that R interval by including the Rydberg basis functions with angular momentum quantum numbers higher than l = 4.
