Presentation Transcript

  1. Radoš S. Dabić, Nenad S. Jovičić Wireless Functional Electrical Stimulation System

  2. Introduction • FES considers use of electrical charge pulses to stimulate sensory or motor nerves in order to get controlled muscle contraction • Variety of centralized FES systems and stimulators • Distributed FES systems • Flexible • Displaced processing to powerful host computers • Low complexity • Wireless communication • Reliability – minimizing transport delay • Various wireless protocols in use nowadays

  3. FES stimulator design • Architecture of the system • Block diagram of the stimulator unit • Block diagram of the coordinator unit

  4. Testbed • Main task – reliability of data transfer • Basic idea – precise bit-rate control at critical points • Variable bit-rate • Transmit power • Combined gives longer range • Design under test: • Transmit power -16dBm • Various bit-rates • RSSI, LQI included • 2-FSK signal modulation (@10kbps), MSK modulation (@100kbps, 250kbps, 500kbps)

  5. Testing results (1)

  6. Testing results (2)

  7. Conclusion • Bit-rate control is of interest for reliable communication in proposed FES system • Precise bit-rate selection in critical situations • Lower bit-rate in order to increase range and throughput of transmission link • RSSI, LQI – help in bit-rate selection

  8. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION!
