ZigBee wireless sensing ECG monitor technology

This paper designs a home telemedicine monitor based on ZigBee wireless sensor network. The image is displayed through the integrated LCD support provided by the LPC2478 based on ARM7 core. At the same time, the signal is stored on the SD card and transmitted to the 10/100 Ethernet. The hospital, the hospital feedback information and display it on the LCD, while the community clinic's coordinator gateway wirelessly returns the diagnosis results to the corresponding home and displays it on the home LCD, and the user can transfer the result to the home computer for storage. The design makes it easy to build a health check network that can be diagnosed by a doctor without complicated operations, and is very suitable for home users.

System implementation

The sensor in the system is used to detect the weak signal of the electrocardiogram, and then encoded by the amplification and filtering, and then sent to the gateway based on the ARM and ZigBee coordinator module through the ZigBee wireless module, and sent to the upper computer through the peripheral interface for display processing. Then, it is transmitted to the community clinic via Ethernet. The clinic then returns each person's information to their homes through the ZigBee wireless module, and displays the processing information of the hospital feedback on the LCD. By selecting the chip reasonably, it is possible to achieve low power consumption, low cost, and detect weak ECG waveform changes.

Signal acquisition and conditioning

The AD620, a low-power, high-precision instrumentation amplifier, is used as the core of the preamplifier. The AD620 features high accuracy, high input impedance, low input bias current, low input offset current, low noise, low power consumption, and small size, making it ideal for use in medical instrumentation systems. The low-pass filter circuit uses the Butterworth fourth-order filter TLC04, which is low-cost, easy to use, and provides a sophisticated fourth-order low-pass filter. The buffer is an in-phase voltage follower that acts to increase the system input impedance and common mode rejection ratio. The limiter uses a dual T band rejection filter to filter out 50Hz power frequency interference. The main stage amplifier uses a full-supply output amplitude quad operational amplifier, the TLC2274, which provides excellent AC performance and provides lower noise, lower input offset voltage, and lower power than conventional CMOS op amps.

The program flow chart of the ZigBee routing node is shown in Figure 2.

Data processing and display description

This design uses differential threshold method to detect QRS wave. The basic idea is to perform differential operation on the filtered ECG signal, find the threshold of the difference to determine the falling edge of the QRS waveform, and then determine the QRS according to a certain time window and amplitude threshold. The characteristic point of the wave.

Scanning electrocardiography, the main principle is: draw points from left to right, in turn display the corresponding position, while the new point will cover the original point, there is a buffer in the middle to brush off the old point. When drawing to the far right, draw a picture from the far left and repeat it all the time. The host computer displays the waveform diagram as shown in Figure 3.
