MASTER OF SCIENCE THESIS DEFENSE and RESEARCH COMPONENT OF PHD QUALIFIER EXAM BY: Md Shaad Mahmud
- Location: Science & Engineering Building, Lester W. Cory Conference Room: Room 213A
- Cost: free
- Contact: ECE: Electrical & Computer Engineering Department
- Description: TOPIC: DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF NON-CONTACT SENSOR NODE FOR WIRELESS HEALTH MONITORING SYSTEM
LOCATION: Lester W. Cory Conference Room, Science & Engineering Building (Group II), Room 213A
ABSTRACT:
The demands and interests in non-contact health monitoring have increased rapidly in recent years due to its noninvasive method and easy to use in daily life. In this project, a real time, non-contact based cardiac monitoring system is developed. This sensor is capacitively-coupled with human skin and does not cause impediments in the natural movement of the user. Moreover, low power RF module and passive components were used for reduced power consumption. Despite the advancement of medical devices and wireless technology, we are still facing problems with contact or evasive based sensors. Current monitoring systems for premature infants are not convenient due to the usage of patched or adhesive tape for monitoring vital information. In this project, the front end circuit is integrated with multiple stages of amplifier, filters, analog to digital converter and the wireless module. The developed non-contact capacitive electrode was integrated into different method to monitor electrocardiography (NCECG) signals. In this work, a simple and easily accessible ECG monitoring node for body networks was designed and tested. The experimental result was compared and verified with Ag/Agcl based electrodes and the proposed system could accurately be used as a medical grade equipment for long-term health monitoring.
NOTE: All ECE Graduate Students are ENCOURAGED to attend.
All interested parties are invited to attend. Open to the public.
Advisor: Dr. Honggang Wang
Committee Members: Dr. Liudong Xing, Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering and Dr. Yong Kim, Department of Biomedical Engineering
