We measured signals at the "Guan" region of a radially arterial pulse using the prototype of a clamping pulsimeter equipped with a Hall effect device, which is passed signals through the voltage detecting hard ware system. The important four different measuring times of the period, systolic, reflective, and notch peaks for a temporally pulse signal are obtained and compared each other from the analysis for an arbitrary pulse wave of one position of small size permanent magnet. It is possible to measure the reproducible pulse rate and blood pressure by using the cuffless clip type pulsimeter without an unpleasant oppressive feeling due to the use of pressurization.

손목에 착용하여 맥파와 산소포화도 등의 정보를 측정할 수 있는 유비쿼터스 광센서를 개발하였다. 유비쿼터스 광센서의 SNR의 향상을 위해 660nm의 LD와 904nm의 LD를 사용하였으며, 2종류의 LD는 각각 PD를 중심으로 $120^{\circ}$로 배치하였다. 또한 정확한 신호의 측정 및 분석을 위해 LabVIEW를 사용하였다. 제작된 광센서는 정확한 맥박 및 산소포화도의 측정이 가능하였으며 Beer-Lambert 곡선과 부합하여, 구성 및 설계가 정확함을 알 수 있다.

Most of existing biomedical signal measurement devices measure and evaluate biomedical signal only in a single device. Also, even if the device is multi-functional, those biomedical signals can be measured by selection of the user. In this paper, we implemented wristband-style biomedical signal measurement device for u-healthcare system to solve the problem above. Implemented device uses 4 infrared sensors to measure the pulse, 2 electrodes to measure the skin conductivity, and 3-axis accelerometer to measure momentum. Also, we propose a communication packet frame for transmitting biomedical signal data to PC or mobile device, using Zigbee. Studies show that our device has the error rate of less than twice for pulse measurement, 85.6%, 84.7% reliability for momentum measurement, and the skin conductivity has changed according to the user's physical status.

Today, the handicapped or old people require continuous care, but there are a lot of practical difficulties. In this paper, the system measuring health conditions of the handicapped or old people (pulse and temperature) is developed. If urgent health conditions occur, measurement values are delivered to doctors or close family members using SMS (Short Message Service) of cellular phone. In the developed system, Pulse rate is measured by sensing bloodstream using high luminance LED and CdS illumination sensors. Body temperature is also measured by contactless temperature sensor. Also, the measured values are transmitted to a server computer using Zigbee communications. Also, the measured values the average of measurements and the time are saved. The wireless healthcare system is designed to help the emergency for the handicapped and old people by using SMS.

The stress is an unavoidable result and a complex phenomenon in modem society. too, Human activity changes under control of the stress. The stress is a reaction to adrenalin or other stress hormones. It provides the power for fighting and the energy for going away from dangers. Because of the stress, our bodies increase the pulse, the blood pressure and the breath for more blood and more oxygen. So, in this research, we are measuring those which was increased by the stress. Also we will examine the change of HRV and APG on music. After that, in order to reduce the stress, we will design matching system that is based on the sense for music by using Zigbee.

Recently, a research on obtaining a vital signal using a Doppler radar has been developed and is used as a technology applied to patients in bed. However, in the case of the measured pulse, the respiration signal is generated as noise, resulting in a problem of lowering accuracy. In this paper, we propose a bio-signal measurement algorithm based on the sampling point to improve the accuracy of the signal for measuring the pulse rate when measuring bio-signals using a Doppler radar. The proposed algorithm improves the accuracy of the measured bio-signal by removing noise generated when measuring biosignals based on two sampling points. Compared with actual medical equipment and existing bio-signal algorithms, it is more than 90% similar to medical equipment. In addition, it was confirmed that severe amplitude change was minimized compared to the existing algorithm.

The most basic thing to measure the condition of a companion animal is to check the breathing and pulse. There are several methods to measure the breathing and pulse of a companion animal, and the PPG method is generally used to measure the oxygen saturation (SpO₂) in a companion animal. However, since the input PPG signal is inputted with various information as well as oxygen saturation, it is necessary to separate and extract oxygen saturation information from the PPG signal in order to measure the oxygen saturation. Therefore, in this paper, a wearable measuring device for companion animals that can be measured by applying the PPG method was designed and implemented, and an algorithm for separating oxygen saturation information from the PPG signal input through the wearable measuring device was proposed.

통신 서비스는 음성, 문자, 영상 등으로 발전해 왔고, 이모티콘, 플레시콘 등 점점 더 다양한 통신 서비스로 발전 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 통신서비스에서 제공하는 문자, 음성, 영상 데이터에 인간의 감성 데이터를 부가한 새로운 통신 서비스를 제안한다. 제안된 새로운 통신 서비스를 구현하기 위하여, 인간 감성을 나타내는 생체 신호를 측정하여야 하며 여기서는 그 측정기를 구성하는데 있어 가능한 방법에 대한 연구이다. 인간의 감성을 나타내는 생체신호로는 맥박, 혈압, 긴장도 등등이 될 수 있는데, 본 논문에서는 생체신호 중 하나인 맥박신호를 적용하였고 인터넷상에서 서로 통신이 가능하도록 바이오 멀티미디어 통신 서비스를 구성 하였다.

As small sized bio-sensors and digital yarns are developed, digital wear measuring vital signs can be used for individuals' health, the elderly care and sports activities. This paper discusses a database structure for analyzing stress state, pulses, positions, exercise amount of user based on vital signs measured for 24 hours measured by the wear and GPS information, and a storage for storing XML documents following a standard HL7 meta-model. By analyzing the stored information, the system identifies the stress state and exercise amount of users. Pulses, exercise intensity and emergency situations can be also detected by the system in real time. This paper discusses the implementation of a system enabling to acquire and analyze vital signals to understand user behavior patterns.
