  1. Human++ from technology to emerging health monitoring concepts Advisor:Robert Chen-Hao Chang Student:Shiue Ru Chen Date:2010/06/04

  2. Outline • Overview of the BAN set • Different biopotential signal sensing • Micro-power generation • Emerging health monitoring concepts A. Wireless sleep staging B. Wireless ECG patch • Reference

  3. Overview of the BAN set up Sensor : processing the bio-signals Base station : collecting and managing the data-flow The incoming signal are amplified and filtered and the BAN is a typical star topology networks with TDMA

  4. Different biopotential signals Amplitude and frequency characteristics of different biopotential signals

  5. Sensor node • 1 EEG sensor node that can acquire, process and transmit 1 to 24 EEG signals. • 1 ECG sensor node that can acquire, process and transmit ECG signals. • 1 EMG sensor node that can acquire, process and transmit EMG signals. • 1 base-station that collects the information from the 3 sensor nodes.

  6. Functional diagram Signals are sampled at 1024Hz with a 12-bit resolution and transmitted over a wireless link operation in the 2.4GHz ISM band 1.Listen : the sensors receive their parameter from the base station 2.Processing : the biopotentical signals are monitored and processed 3.Transmit : the sensors send their data to the base station 4.Sleep : power save mode ,most of the electronics are switched off

  7. Ultra-low-power wireless The Nordic nRF24L01 achieves less than 20nJ/bit Another system can deliver a pulse rate up to 40MHz with a measured power consumption of 2mW, or 50pJ per pulse ,1nJ/bit.

  8. Ultra-low-power sensing EEG, ECG, EMG and EOG signals, presents an interesting challenge as these signals differ in amplitude and frequency characteristics

  9. UWB-IR The transmitted signal consists in pulses of short duration (~1-2 ns) that are separated by longer silent periods (~20 ns or more). Feature: 1.High speed (400 Mbps) 2.Low power 3.Wireless transformation 4.Impulse signal 5.Range of 10m 1.bandwidth larger than 500 MHz 2.Communications between 3.1GHz and 10.6GHz 3.Power spectral density(PSD)limit of -41dbm/MHz

  10. Architecture of the pulse generator It been implemented in a logic 0.18um CMOS technology And it can deliver a pulse rate up to 40MHz with a measured power consumption of 2mW, or 50pJ per pulse ,1nJ/bit. Ring oscillator has fast startuptime

  11. Example for EMG Listen and transmit mode consume about 90% of the power and the overall power less than 1mW if the measurement interval is longer than 1s

  12. Comparing (up) UWB-IR signal , there are idle time that can save power (down) narrowband radio signal , there are always active time

  13. Power breakdown for benchmarking example Active : optimizing the processing algorithm , reducing data memory sizes, decreasing processor complexity and cycle count Idle : clock gating control Leakage : using high threshold voltage cell

  14. Micro-power generation Heat flow generates a power density of about 20 A thermoelectric generator (TEG) output voltage of 0.7V at matched load Provide pulse-oximeter power At 22°C, wrist-watch type of TEG provide 0.2-0.3 mW density varying from 8to 25 micromachined thermoelectric generator, which is expected to generate up to 30 μW/cm2 at a voltage exceeding 4.0 V EEG monitoring

  15. Seebeck effect The thermal emf is not define as temperature(T1-T2) .

  16. Schematic of a thermoelectric Typically based on Bi2Te3, the pillars have a lateral size of 0.3 – 1 μm and a height of 1 – 3 μm. A TEG optimized to obtain the maximum power will have a thermal resistance of about 200 cm2K/W per cm2 of surface

  17. Performance of the watch-like TEG 1.No physical activity 2.Working in office 3.Walking man

  18. Battery-less electronics Wireless body-powered pulse oximeter , a prototype of the battery-less electronics and the application running on a laptop.

  19. Emerging health monitoring concepts A. Wireless sleep staging 2-channel EEG, 2-channel EOG and 1-channel EMG Each node achieves a power consumption of 15 mW, for a sampling rate of 200 Hz Featuring: Reconfigurable gain and bandwidth, the read-out ASIC can be used to monitor EEG, EOG and EMG
