본 연구에서는 범용적인 건강 모니터링에 활용할 수 있는 생체신호인 심전도를 일반 가정 내에서 뿐만 아니라 일상생활 중에서도 실시간으로 편리하게 측정할 수 있도록 초소형 저전력의 착용형 심전도 계측시스템을 구현하였다. 이를 위하여 표준 12-lead법이 아닌 모바일 또는 휴대용 장치에 적합한 2-lead법을 사용하여 심전도 계측부를 구현하였고, 심전도 계측부를 베이스 노드로 하여 심전도 신호를 가정 내 또는 실외에서도 무선으로 전송 할 수 있도록 구현하였다. 먼저 가정 내에서는 저 전력 무선센서노드를 이용하여 심전도 신호를 실시간으로 PC에 전송하여 모니터링이 가능하도록 구현 하였고, 실외에서는 저전력 통신 방식인 Bluetooth 2.0을 사용하여 스마트폰으로 심전도 신호를 실시간으로 전송해 모니터링 할 수 있도록 구현하였다.

In this study, we propose a suitable magnetic resonant wireless power transfer(WPT) system topology for size-limited implant medical devices(IMDs). The proposed modified series-parallel topology(mSPT) can be implemented by adding an inductor in series to the parallel-connected Rx coil and a capacitor. The topology achieves high efficiency when the Rx coil has a small inductance. The validity and operating conditions of the system are verified theoretically through circuit analysis. Experiments were conducted with bio-blocks, which are made of pork fat and muscle. When the Rx coils were inserted into the blocks at a depth of 2.5~10 mm, mSPT showed 17.79 % improved efficiency on average compared with the conventional series-series topology(SST). In the case of 32 dBm WPT in air, the Rx coil's heating rate for the mSPT was $0.18^{\circ}C/s$, whereas the SST was $0.75^{\circ}C/s$. It was confirmed that the mSPT is more suitable for an IMD-targeted WPT system.

U-Healthcare는 언제 어디서나 환자의 생체 건강을 관리하고 유지할 수 있도록 하는 정보통신기술이다. U-Healthcare통신은 대부분 무선통신을 사용하여 검진 결과나 위급 시에 감지된 환자의 정보를 병원 서버로 전송한다. 이 때 U-Healthcare기기나 병원 서버에 악의적인 행위자가 DDoS공격을 하면 환자의 정보는 병원서버까지 전송되지 못해 병원의 도움을 받을 수 없는 상황이 발생된다. 이에 대응하기 위하여 본 논문은 U-Healthcare 통신 공격 패턴과 시나리오를 빅데이터로 구축한다. 그 후 악의적인 사용자가 U-Healthcare기기나 서버를 공격하면 DB와 연동하여 일치된 공격을 막을 수 있다. 앞으로 원격의료 서비스에서 나타날 수 있는 보안 위협을 알아보고, 빅데이터를 활용하여 보안 위협에 대응할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다.

In this paper, we present a patient real-time vital sign information transmission system to effectively support developing real-time communication service by using a real-time object model named TMO (Time-Triggered Message-Triggered Object). Also, we describes the application environment as the PMS(Patient Monitoing System) to guarantee real-time service message with TMO structure in distributed network systems. We have to design to obtain useful vital sign information, which is generated at parsing data receiver modulor of HIS with TMO structure, that is offered by the central monitor of PMS. Vital sign informations of central monitor is composed of the raw data of several bedsite patient monitors. We are willing to maintain vital sign information of real time and continuity that is generated from the bedsite patient monitor. In the real time simulation techniques based on TMO object modeling, we have observed several advantages to the TMO structuring scheme. TMO object modeling has a strong traceability between requirement specification and design.

The TMO may contain two types of methods, time-triggered methods(also called the spontaneous methods of SpMs) which are clearly separated from the conventional service methods (SvMs). The SpM executions are triggered upon design time whereas the SvM executions are triggered by service request message from clients. In this paper, we describes the application environment as the patient monitor telemedicine system with TMO structure. Vital sign information web viewer systems is also the standard protocol for medical image and transfer. We have to design to obtain useful vital sign information, which is generated at parsing data receiver modulor of HIS with TMO structure, that is offered by the central monitor of ICU. In order to embrace new technologies as telemedicine service, it is important to develope the standard protocol between different systems in the hospital, as well as the communication with external hospital systems.

A novel approach for electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis within a functional sensor node has been developed and evaluated. The main aim is to reduce data collision, traffic overload and power consumption in healthcare applications of wireless sensor networks(WSN). The sensor node attached on the patient's body surface around the heart can perform ECG analysis based on a QRS detection algorithm to detect abnormal condition of the patient. Data transfer is activated only after detected abnormality in the ECG. This system can reduce packet loss during transmission by reducing traffic overload. In addition, it saves power supply energy leading to more reliable, cheap and user-friendly operation in the WSN for ubiquitous health monitoring.

In this paper, we propose the architecture of the policy-based emergency bio data transmission for the smart healthcare service. the medical staff can quickly and accurately monitor the emergency bio data of the remote patient through the proposed architecture. The proposed system consists of three parts: IEEE 11073-based agents and managers performing the aggregation function and transmission function of the bio data; the emergency management server performing the converting function between IEEE 11073 and HL7 and auto-diagnosis function of the policy-based; HL7 medical system based on HL7. Finally, by implementing the proposed system, we shows that the aggregation of the bio data and management of the emergency bio data in the smart healthcare service are possible.

Covert Underwater Communication (CUC) signals should not be detected by other unintended users. Similar to the method used in Radio Frequency (RF), covert communication technique sending information underwater is designed in consideration of the characteristics of Low Probability of Detection (LPD) and Low Probability of Intercept (LPI). These conventional methods, however, are difficult to be used in the underwater communications because of the narrow frequency bandwidth. Unlike the conventional methods of reducing transmission power or increasing the modulation bandwidth, a method of mimicking the acoustic signal of an underwater mammal is being studied. The biomimetic underwater acoustic communication mainly mimics the click or whistle sound produced by dolphin or whale. This paper investigates biomimetic communication method and introduces research trends to understand the potential for the development of such biomimetic covert underwater acoustic communication and future research areas.

In this paper, we propose a new Intra-body communication system for bio-sensor which is one of applications in PAN(Personal Area Network) using body channel. The communication systems for bio-sensor network usually transmits a lot of data acquired in sensor to the receiver in wrist or waist. So we deign the intra-body modem with high data rate, low power, and small size which are achieved by baseband communication techniques. It is noted that the baseband transmission does not requires any analog IF and RF frontends, and can be operated in lower frequency than bandpass transmission. The proposed modem operates at 10MHz band according to the characteristics of intra-body channel, and shows the capability of 5Mbps data rate at distance of 20cm, with $BER=10^{-5}$. In addition, we implement the modem within $2{\times}2cm$ area.
