Performance of A Wireless Electrocardiogram System based on Wi-Fi and BLE Technology

Abstract

Wearable electrocardiogram (ECG) systems have increasingly been used in everyday life, breaking down the barriers that formerly existed only within hospitals. They allow for non-invasive continuous monitoring of a variety of heart parameters. The aim of this work is to investigate and assess the development of a user-friendly, mobile, and compact wearable ECG system for instantaneous recording. The work also presented the design of the ECG system with Autodesk EAGLE and Fusion 360 that has wireless connectivity via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. The functionality of this ECG system is aided by the BMD101 cardio chip device, which is composed of an amplifier, filter, and 16-bit analog to digital converter. The results indicated the regular cardiac rhythm of 60 beats per minute (bpm), 120 bpm, and 180 bpm, respectively, along with the abnormal heart condition of ventricular tachycardia. Eventually, this study concluded with a list of key remaining obstacles as well as potential for development in terms of result display and system software, both of which are vital for continued advancement.
