U-healthcare system has an aim to provide reliable and fast medical services for patient regardless of time and space by transmitting to doctors a large quantity of vital signs collected from sensor networks. Existing u-healthcare systems can merely monitoring patients' health status. In this paper, we describe the implementation and validation of a prototype of a u-health monitoring system based on a wireless sensor network. This system is easy to derive physiologically meaningful results by analyzing rapidly vital signs. The monitoring system sends only the abnormal data of examinee to the service provider. This technique can reduces the wireless data packet overload between a monitoring part and service provider. The real-time bio-signal monitoring system makes possible to implement u-health services and improving efficiency of medical services.

This paper suggests a healthcare home service system based on the distributed object group framework that can not only provide healthcare application services using the information obtained from the physical healthcare sensors and devices, and but also monitor and control these services remotely. The distributed object group framework supports the object group service, the interaction service between object groups and the real-time service in order to execute the healthcare application. Here object group means the unit of logical grouped objects or healthcare sensors and devices for a service. Our suggested system consists of 3 layers. The first layer presents the physical sensors and devices for healthcare, as a physical layer. The second layer lays the distributed object group framework, and the third layer, the upper's one, implements healthcare applications based on lower layers. With healthcare applications providing for this system, we implemented the location tracking service, the health information service and the titrating environment service. Also the integrated executing results of these services can be monitored and controlled via remote desktop systems or PDAs.

Structural health monitoring is important to maintain the safety and serviceability of the structures. The displacement in the structure should be precisely and frequently monitored because it is a direct assessment index indicating its stiffness. However, no practical method has been developed to monitor such displacement precisely, particularly for high-rise buildings and long span bridges because they cannot be easily accessible. To overcome such difficult accessibility, we propose to use a LIDAR system that remotely samples the surface of an object using laser pulses and generates the coordinates of numerous points on the surface. In this study, using terrestrial LiDAR, we develop a novel displacement measuring model for structural health monitoring and perform an indoor experiment to prove its performance.

미세 물질을 포함하고 있는 광산 폐기물의 디워터링 과정(dewatering process)은 작은 입자들의 침전속도가 낮기 때문에 시간이 오래 걸리고 어려운 과정이다. 따라서 광산 폐기물이 안정적으로 침전되었는지 확인하기 위해서 디워터링 과정을 연속적으로 모니터링하는 기술이 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 kaolinite, illite, bentonite 3 종류의 점토를 3 가지 농도(0.1g/L, 1g/L, 5g/L)로 나눠서 초음파 음향 감지를 이용해 후방산란 신호를 측정했다. 그리고 측정된 신호를 활용하여 합성곱 신경망(CNN) 모델을 개발하여 점토의 분류 모델을 만드는 연구를 수행했다. 본 연구에서 보여준 CNN 의 높은 정확도는 광산 폐기물의 디워터링 과정에서 미세 광물과 미세 농도 분류 모니터링에 적합한 저렴하고 측정하기 쉬운 음향 감지의 사용 가능성을 입증했다.

현대사회는 인구의 고령화에 따른 노인인구의 증가 및 만성질환자의 증가에 따른 의료수요 급증이 예상되고 있다. 하지만 현재의 의료서비스 인프라는 증가하는 의료수요를 충족하기에는 역부족이 따르며, 이러한 문제점을 해결하기위해 정보통신기술과 헬스케어기술이 결합된 유비쿼터스 헬스케어기술이 부각되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 일상생활 중 움직임에 따른 활동 상태를 판별하여 운동량의 모니터링을 통한 건강관리뿐만 아니라 낙상 등과 같은 응급상황의 모니터링이 가능한 시스템을 구현하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 3축 가속도센서를 이용하여 인체의 움직임에 따른 활동 가속도 신호를 계측할 수 있는 센서 및 시스템을 구현하였다. 또한 계측된 센서신호를 PC또는 휴대용 단말기로 무선전송하기위하여 무선센서네트워크 기술을 적용한 데이터 전송시스템을 구현하였다. 계측된 가속도 신호로부터 활동 상태를 판별하기위해 다층 퍼셉트론 알고리즘을 적용한 분류알고리즘을 제안하였으며, 분류알고리즘의 성능평가를 통해 실제 활동상태 모니터링에 적용 가능함을 확인하였다.

As the number of elderly people rapidly increases, needs of patient safety monitoring system also increases in indoor and outdoor medical facilities. With developing technologies related to sensors and information and communication technology, various dementia patient monitoring systems have been proposed. However, previous studies that depend on wearable devices provides limited functionalities. In this paper, we designed an integrated system that includes smart devices to monitor patient's status, user friendly UI/UX, and interaction with hospital information system. Medical teams and carers can receive satus of each patient in real-time and trace the location of dementia patients outdoor as well as indoor by using the proposed system.

Recently, the smart health care industry has been rising rapidly and interest and efforts for public health have been greatly increased. As a result, the public does not visit medical specialists and medical facilities, but the desire to check their health condition in everyday life is increased. Therefore, many domestic and foreign companies continuously research and develop wearable devices that can measure body activity information anytime and anywhere And the market. Especially, it is used for heart activity measurement device using pulse wave sensor and electrocardiogram sensor. However, in this study, a monitoring system that can detect cardiac activity using cardiac sounds, heart sound measurement rather than pulse wave measurement and electrocardiogram measurement, was performed and its performance was evaluated. Experimental results confirmed the predictability of cardiac heart rate and heart valve disease during daily living.

Recent developments in IT have made real-time ECG monitoring possible, and this represents a promising application for the emerging HL7 standard for the exchange of clinical information. However, applying the HL7 standard directly to real-time ECG monitoring causes problems, because the partial duplication of data within an HL7 message increases the amount of data to be transmitted, and the time taken to process it. We reduce these overheads by Feature Scaling, by standardizing the range of independent variables or features of data, while nevertheless generating HL7-compliant messages. We also use a De-Duplication algorithm to eliminate the partial repetition of the OBX field in an HL7 ORU message. Our strategy shortens the time required to create messages by 51%, and reduces the size of messages by 1/8, compared to naive HL7 coding.

유비쿼터스 시대를 맞이해서 휴대용 진단 진료 기기를 환자가 쉽게 휴대 및 착용해서 환자의 질병 및 건강 상태를 모니터링 하여 위험한 상황을 미리 예측, 통지가 가능한 시스템을 발전시켜야 할 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 이를 위하여 다양한 특성을 가진 휴대용 의료 계측 기기 센서들을 환자의 신체에 부착하고 다양한 센서들이 네트워크를 형성하여 인터넷과 통신하는 것은 물론 이동이 가능해야 한다. 즉, 센서 네트워크 기술과 이동성 기술이 접목된 네트워킹 기술이 필요하지만 아직까지 실질적인 적용에 대한 구체적인 연구는 없는 형편이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 요구사항을 만족시키는 U-헬스케어 시스템을 구축하기 위해 각 센서 노드에 IPv6 를 적용하여 항상 인터넷에 연결되어 실시간 모니터링이 가능함과 동시에 네트워크 단위의 이동성을 지원하는 프로토콜과 연동하는 시나리오와 구조를 제시한다.

Recently, various studies have been attempted to provide a biological information monitoring service through integrating with the web service. The medical information transmission standard ISO/IEEE 11073 PHD defines the optimized exchange protocol ISO/IEEE 11073-20601 based on the No-IP to exchange the biometric information between the ISO/IEEE 11073 agent and the manager. It's system structure based on the No-IP using ISO/IEEE 11073-20601 is not suitable for providing a remote biological information monitoring services. That is because it is difficult to provide to control and manage the biological information measurement devices, which have installed IP protocol stack at the remote. Furthermore, ACSE and CMDISE in ISO/IEEE 11073-20601 are not suitable to provide U-healthcare services based on IoT because they are complicated and difficult to implement it caused by the structural complexity. In order to solve the problems, in this paper, we propose the biological information monitoring architecture based on ISO/IEEE 11073 DIM/REST of IoT environment to provide the biological information monitoring service based on IoT. To do this, we designed biological information monitoring system architecture based on IoT and the message exchange protocol of ISO/IEEE 11073 DIM/REST between the ISO/IEEE 11073 agent and the ISO/IEEE 11073 manager. In order to verify the realistic possibility of the proposed system architecture, we developed the service prototype.
