Wearable advanced single chip ECG telemonitoring system using SoPC

[摘要] References(9)A lot of care must be taken to choose the processor for the biomedical application to meet out the real time constrains. Also the complexity of the programming increases with the multi processing environments. The real time Operating systems can support the problem up to a particular limit based on the processor architecture. When the hard real time parameters needs higher Multi processing environment, the processor struck to a limit. This paper deals with the wearable telemonitoring and Lab on chip feature for the 12 lead ECG interpretation and analysis with maintaining the patient history in case of arrhythmia like diseases. Instead of implementing the application on a single processor or FPGA solution, it is implemented using NIOS II (Altera IP core) based multi core architecture. The System on chip consists of GPS tracking, GSM base band work and the ECG processing elements and this proposes a most user friendly and wearable single medical chip. The idea of this paper is to improve the efficiency and speed of processing of the ECG interpretation and telemonitoring by separating tasks between the processors.
