Biosignal Measurement System Based On Ultra-Wide Band Human Body Communication
نویسنده
چکیده
A wrist-band type biosignal measurement system and its data transfer through human body communication (HBC) were investigated. An HBC method based on pulses of ultra-wide band instead of using frequency or amplitude modulations was studied and implemented since the system became very compact and it was more suited for personal or mobile health monitoring. Our system measured photo-plethysmogram (PPG) and measured PPG signals were transmitted through a finger to a monitoring PC system. The device was compact and low-power consuming. HBC communication has very strong security measures since it does not use wireless network. Furthermore, biosignal monitoring system becomes handy because it does not need to have wire connections. Keywords—Biosignal, human body communication, mobile health, PPG, ultrawide band.

Biosignal Measurement using Personal Area Network based on Human Body Communication
In this study, we introduced a communication system where human body was used as medium through which data were transferred. Multiple biosignal sensing units were attached to a subject and wireless personal area network was formed. Data of the sensing units were shared among them. We used wideband pulse communication that was simple, low-power consuming and high data rated. Each unit functioned...
متن کاملDual Band Slotted Patch Antenna for On/Off-body Communication
Body Centric Wireless Communication (BCWC) has been topic of much research in recent years. In this manuscript, a novel low-cost microstrip patch antenna is designed for on-/off-body communication with a dual-band operation. The proposed structure exhibits a monopole-like radiation pattern at 2.45 GHz and a broadside radiation at 4.8 GHz, simultaneously. Lateral dimensions of 42 mm × 46 mm and ...
متن کاملA Novel Compact Dual Notch Band Filter Based on Metamaterial Concept
Using composite right-left handed (CRLH) transmission line concept, a novel miniaturized dual notch band filter (DNBF) is proposed. The suggested DNBF consists of an interdigital transmission line (ITL), split ring resonators (SRRs) and complementary split ring resonators (CSRRs). Since the resonance frequency of the SRRs and CSRRs are quite independent of each other, the dual notch bands of th...
متن کاملChannel modeling for UWB WBAN on-off body communication link with finite integration technique
Comprehensive knowledge of the channel and accurate channel models are essential in the optimized system design. In the Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) applications, use of Ultra Wideband (UWB) transmission as well as close presence of human body, bring their own major challenges in the channel modeling. Several channel models have been proposed and numerous channel measurement campaigns have...
متن کاملAntennas and Propagation for Body Centric Wireless Communications
In this paper, on-body propagation modelling has been investigated applying various numerical computational techniques. Propagation measurements with body-worn antennas have been carried out at 2.4GHz inside and outside an anechoic chamber respectively for narrowband communication channel characterisation. Both simulation and measurement results have been also obtained at the UWB (Ultra Wide-Ba...
