How to Equip Para-aramide Yarns with Electro-conductive Properties 如何使锦纶丝具有导电性能
A. Schwarz, J. Hakuzimana, P. Westbroek, L. Langenhove
Electro-conductive textiles are increasingly demanded in our today’s technology-driven world as they combine functionalities with high wearing comfort. Thus, they are, for instance, very suitable for being applied as electrodes integrated in clothing to measure biomedical parameters of a person. For this purpose they need to be modified to provide reliable electro-conductive properties. This can be achieved by depositing metals on the textile surface. Copper and gold are good materials to be used for this purpose because of their outstanding electro-conductive properties and possibility to deposit them in form of a thin layer on the surface of a fiber. In this work preference was given to copper. Hence, a thin layer of copper was deposited on synthetic yarns by means of an electroless deposition. This paper states the coating method for the copper deposition on para-aramide yarns. Further, it reports the first results on the characterization of the copper layer and the performance of the resulting yarns.
在当今技术驱动的世界中,导电纺织品的需求越来越大,因为它们将功能与高穿着舒适性相结合。因此,例如,它们非常适合作为集成在衣服中的电极来测量人体的生物医学参数。为此,需要对它们进行修改,以提供可靠的导电性能。这可以通过在纺织品表面沉积金属来实现。铜和金是用于此目的的好材料,因为它们具有出色的导电性能,并且可以在纤维表面形成薄层。在这项工作中,优先考虑铜。因此,通过化学沉积的方法在合成纱线上沉积了一层薄薄的铜。本文叙述了在锦纶纱上镀铜的方法。此外,报告了铜层表征和所得纱线性能的首次结果。

Bayesian Analysis of Sub-plantar Ground Reaction Force with BSN 基于BSN的地底反力贝叶斯分析
Benny P. L. Lo, J. Pansiot, Guang-Zhong Yang
The assessment of Ground Reaction Forces (GRF) is important for gait analysis for sports, pathological gaits and rehabilitation. To capture GRF, force plates and foot pressure insoles are commonly used. Due to cost and portability issues, such systems are mostly limited to lab-based studies. Long-term, continuous and pervasive measurement of GRF is not feasible. This paper presents a novel concept of using an ear-worn sensor for pervasive gait analysis. By emulating the human vestibular system, the bio-inspired design sensor effectively captures the shock wave generated by the GRF. A hierarchical Bayesian network is developed to estimate the plantar force distribution from the ear sensor signals. The accuracy of the ear sensor for detecting GRF is demonstrated by comparing the results with a high-accuracy commercial foot pressure insole system.
地面反作用力(GRF)的评估对运动、病理步态和康复的步态分析具有重要意义。为了捕获GRF,通常使用力板和足部压力鞋垫。由于成本和便携性问题,这种系统大多局限于实验室研究。长期、连续和普遍测量GRF是不可行的。本文提出了一种利用耳戴式传感器进行普适步态分析的新概念。通过模拟人体前庭系统,仿生设计的传感器有效地捕获了GRF产生的冲击波。采用层次贝叶斯网络从耳传感器信号中估计足底力分布。通过与高精度商用足压鞋垫系统的结果比较,证明了耳传感器检测GRF的准确性。

A Battery-Free Tag for Wireless Monitoring of Heart Sounds 一种用于无线监测心音的无电池标签
S. Mandal, L. Turicchia, R. Sarpeshkar
We have developed a wearable, battery-free tag that monitors heart sounds. The tag powers up by harvesting ambient RF energy, and contains a low-power integrated circuit, an antenna and up to four microphones. The chip, which consumes only 1.0uW of power, generates digital events when the outputs of any of the microphones exceeds a programmable threshold voltage, combines such events together by using a programmable logic array, and transmits them to a base station by using backscatter modulation. The chip can also be programmed to trade-off microphone sensitivity for power consumption. In this paper, we demonstrate that the tag, when attached to the chest, can reliably measure heart rate at distances up to 7m from an FCC-compliant RF power source. We also suggest how delays between signals measured by microphones at the wrist and neck can be used to provide information about relative blood-pressure variations.
我们开发了一种可穿戴的无电池标签,可以监测心音。这种标签通过收集周围的射频能量来供电,它包含一个低功耗集成电路、一个天线和多达四个麦克风。该芯片仅消耗1.0uW的功率,当任何麦克风的输出超过可编程阈值电压时产生数字事件,通过可编程逻辑阵列将这些事件组合在一起,并通过反向散射调制将它们传输到基站。该芯片也可以通过编程来权衡麦克风的灵敏度和功耗。在本文中,我们证明了该标签,当连接到胸部时,可以在距离fcc兼容的射频电源7米的距离上可靠地测量心率。我们还建议如何利用手腕和脖子上的麦克风测量信号之间的延迟来提供有关相对血压变化的信息。

Low-Complexity, High-Throughput Multiple-Access Wireless Protocol for Body Sensor Networks 人体传感器网络的低复杂度、高吞吐量多址无线协议
S. Yoo, Chong-Jing Chen, P. Chou
Wireless systems that form a body-area network must be made small and low power without sacrificing performance. To achieve high-throughput communication in low-cost wireless body area networks, we propose a low complexity,“pulling” MAC protocol. Such a network architecture consists of low-complexity nodes and moderate complexity base stations, which act as clients to pull data from the nodes that act as thin servers. This organization achieves intra-network collision-free multiple access as in TDMA but without expensive time synchronization. It also achieves high utilization of air bandwidth and adaptivity of CSMA protocols but without collision or complexity on the node side. Experimental results show that our pulling protocol achieves better good channel utilization of up to 52.8% and high data throughput of up to 432Kbps. We also tested our MAC protocol on a wireless ECG system. Our MAC protocol can transmit ten simultaneous streams of data at 200 samples per second each from ten sensing devices.
构成体域网络的无线系统必须在不牺牲性能的前提下体积小、功耗低。为了在低成本无线体域网络中实现高吞吐量通信,我们提出了一种低复杂度的“拉式”MAC协议。这种网络架构由低复杂度节点和中等复杂度的基站组成,后者充当客户机,从充当瘦服务器的节点提取数据。该组织实现了与TDMA一样的网内无冲突的多路访问,但没有昂贵的时间同步。实现了对无线带宽的高利用率和CSMA协议的自适应,同时避免了节点侧的冲突和复杂性。实验结果表明,该协议的信道利用率可达52.8%,数据吞吐量可达432Kbps。我们还在无线心电系统上测试了我们的MAC协议。我们的MAC协议可以同时传输10个数据流,每个数据流每秒200个样本,来自10个传感设备。

A Field Programmable Analogue ASIC towards Low Power Processing-on-Node BSNs 面向低功耗节点上处理的现场可编程模拟ASIC
Lujie Wang, Juan Zhang, Jianghong Huang, Liangwen Chen, Li Yu, Yuan-Ting Zhang, Guang-Zong Yang
Modern microelectronics technologies play important roles in body sensor networks (BSN). In this paper a field programmable analogue ASIC working on the discrete-time mode for biomedical signal filtering was presented. The ASIC we have developed incorporates a switched-capacitor based analogue module, a current source, a voltage source, an oscillator, and a double-phase non-overlapping clock source offering different clock rates. By alternating the circuit topologies and the clock frequencies for the on-chip switched-capacitors the ASIC could be dynamically configured as a high-pass filter or a low-pass filter with adjustable cut-off frequencies and pass-band gains. The ASIC was fabricated using the SMIC 0.18um CMOS technology with a die size of 1.0mm×1.2mm and the power consumption of approximately 1.1 mW. The ASIC was fully tested and the results indicated that the ASIC performed as desired. In the future an autonomous Field Programmable Analogue Array ASIC will be developed towards intelligent processing-on-node BSNs.
现代微电子技术在人体传感器网络(BSN)中发挥着重要作用。本文介绍了一种用于生物医学信号离散时间滤波的现场可编程模拟专用集成电路。我们开发的ASIC集成了一个基于开关电容的模拟模块、一个电流源、一个电压源、一个振荡器和一个提供不同时钟速率的双相非重叠时钟源。通过交换片上开关电容的电路拓扑和时钟频率,ASIC可以动态配置为具有可调截止频率和通带增益的高通滤波器或低通滤波器。ASIC采用中芯国际0.18um CMOS技术制造,芯片尺寸为1.0mm×1.2mm,功耗约为1.1 mW。对ASIC进行了全面测试,结果表明ASIC的性能符合预期。在未来,一种自主的现场可编程模拟阵列ASIC将朝着智能节点上处理bsn的方向发展。

Noninvasive Cuffless Estimation of Blood Pressure from Pulse Arrival Time and Heart Rate with Adaptive Calibration 基于脉搏到达时间和心率的无创无袖套血压自适应校准
F. Cattivelli, H. Garudadri
We study the problem of noninvasively estimating Blood Pressure (BP) without using a cuff, which is attractive for continuous monitoring of BP over Body Area Networks. It has been shown that the Pulse Arrival Time (PAT) measured as the delay between the ECG peak and a point in the finger PPG waveform can be used to estimate systolic and diastolic BP. Our aim is to evaluate the performance of such a method using the available MIMIC database, while at the same time improve the performance of existing techniques. We propose an algorithm to estimate BP from a combination of PAT and heart rate, showing improvement over PAT alone. We also show how the method achieves recalibration using an RLS adaptive algorithm. Finally, we address the use case of ECG and PPG sensors wirelessly communicating to an aggregator and study the effect of skew and jitter on BP estimation.

Detection of Wheezes Using a Wearable Distributed Array of Microphones 使用可穿戴式分布式麦克风阵列检测喘息声
W. Ser, Tongtong Zhang, Jufeng Yu, Jianmin Zhang
This paper presents a wheeze detection method that uses a distributed array of microphones and can be implemented as part of a wearable health monitoring system. In order to reduce the power consumption for the wearable system, the method has been developed to operate at a sampling rate of 1000Hz, instead of 8000Hz. In the design, we use two regular air conductive microphones and a bone conductive microphone to increase the accuracy of detection and make it robust against environmental noise. The two air-conductive microphones capture breathing sound while bone-conductive microphone is placed over the manubrium of the sternum in patients to record chest wall lung sound. The simulations are conducted using lung sounds from patients with wheezes and human subjects with no wheezes under different SNR conditions. The results show that the proposed method is robust against environmental noise and has good performance on wheeze detection. The approach has been implemented onto a PDA and tested with some real data.

Detecting Walking Gait Impairment with an Ear-worn Sensor 用耳戴式传感器检测行走步态障碍
L. Atallah, O. Aziz, Benny P. L. Lo, Guang-Zhong Yang
This paper investigates an ear worn sensor for the development of a gait analysis framework. Instead of explicitly defining gait features that indicate injury or impairment, an automatic method of feature extraction and selection is proposed. The proposed framework uses multi-resolution wavelet analysis and margin based feature selection. It was validated on three datasets; the first simulating a leg injury, the second simulating abdominal impairment that could result from surgery or injury and the third is a dataset collected from a patient during recovery from leg injury. The method shows a clear distinction of gait between injured and normal walking. It also illustrates the fact that using source separation before pattern classification can significantly improve the proposed gait analysis framework.

B. Grundlehner, L. Brown, J. Penders, B. Gyselinckx
The recent development of miniaturized, low-power components for body sensor networks pave the way towards intelligent and ambulatory monitoring devices with a plurality of applications. Here, the design and development of a real-time arousal monitor, based on Human++ Body Area Network components is described. A new set of biomarkers is proposed based on psychophysiological observations and principles. A strong relation between the estimated arousal level and the expected arousal level is reported for responses triggered by movie clips, in a controlled environment. This relation is shown to extend to stimuli of a different nature, such as sounds and mental stress tests. The system will enable new applications in the field of stress management, safety, e-learning and gaming.
最近,用于人体传感器网络的小型化、低功耗组件的发展为具有多种应用的智能和动态监测设备铺平了道路。本文介绍了一种基于human++ Body Area Network组件的实时唤醒监视器的设计与开发。基于心理生理学的观察和原理,提出了一套新的生物标志物。据报道,在受控环境中,由电影片段引发的反应的估计唤醒水平和预期唤醒水平之间存在很强的关系。这种关系被证明可以扩展到不同性质的刺激,如声音和精神压力测试。该系统将在压力管理、安全、电子学习和游戏领域实现新的应用。
