Detailed description of the invention
In skin, blood situation follows change with heartbeat, illuminates skin surface by launching green glow, and photoelectric sensor receives the Strength Changes of reflection light, can analyze the heart beating situation of human body.When human body is kept in motion, in skin blood situation except saltus step of following one's inclinations outside the pale of civilization, also change with human motion.Analyzing according to human body behavioural habits, human body is when moving, in addition to lower limb alternately walking produces periodically motion, upper limb consequently also can the swing of generating period, therefore can cause the situation of the blood shake produced due to motion jitter.So, wearable device is worn on hand by user, when user is kept in motion, contains the information of the dermathemia that heartbeat causes and the information of the blood shake of motion jitter generation in the photosignal that photoelectric sensor detects.
The PPG(photoplethaysmography of the information comprising the dermathemia that heartbeat causes and the information of blood that motion jitter produces shake) signal is compared with the PPG signal of the information only comprising the dermathemia that heartbeat causes, distinct feature is that: the peak (peak that peak may be caused for motion or heart rate+motion superposition herein) at heart rate peak periodically occurs being different from, the frequency spectrum obtained after PPG signal is carried out Fourier's process can be distinguished the frequency on the peak periodically occurred in former PPG signal.
After processing the signal Fourier of rule swing arm motion, frequency spectrum there will be one group of spectrum energy Relatively centralized and frequency coordinate becomes the peak of twice relation, such as: fundamental frequency peak and frequency multiplication peak, or half frequency peak and fundamental frequency peak.The most either heart rate signal or such one group of peak all can occur in motor message (superposed signal of motor message+heart rate signal), so by repeatedly compareing peak (fundamental frequency peak and the two frequency multiplication peaks that in PPG frequency spectrum and acceleration frequency spectrum, necessary simultaneous two class frequencys are close, or half frequency peak and fundamental frequency peak), can determine that the used peak calculating cadence is the peak of motor message (superposed signal of motor message+heart rate signal), thus can improve the accuracy calculating cadence.Owing to people is on foot time, frequency of waving is the half of cadence, i.e. wave two steps of once walking, when therefore calculating cadence, the peak point coordinate at peak that one group of peak intermediate-frequeney point coordinate of twice relation is bigger can be become to calculate cadence with PPG frequency spectrum intermediate frequency spectrum energy Relatively centralized and frequency coordinate.
As it is shown in figure 1, be the indicative flowchart of the cadence computational methods according to one embodiment of the invention, specifically include that acquisition step S200, process step S300, and calculation procedure S400;In another embodiment, include the most alternatively judging step S100;In yet another embodiment, include the most alternatively reminding step S500.
Wherein in judging step S100, by motion sensor, judge the most described user is kept in motion.In one embodiment, described motion sensor for example, acceleration transducer (can use same acceleration transducer with following acquisition step), acceleration by continuous collecting user, analyze acceleration change situation, and then judge that the current state of user is non-athletic state or kinestate.In one embodiment, for example, acceleration transducer gathers user's acceleration, if sample rate e.g. 25Hz, it is cumulative and calculate that every 25 pen data carry out one-shot change amount, and adjacent two sampled datas are subtracted each other to take absolute value and then sued for peace, as the sport rank of 1 second.The data of every 1 second, as a unit, are often deposited enough 4 and are taken once average (with nearest 4 calculating), as " nearest 4 seconds sport ranks ".By nearest 4 seconds sport ranks compared with predetermined threshold, if sport rank was more than or equal to predetermined threshold in nearest 4 seconds, then it is assumed that user is kept in motion, and can start to calculate user's stride frequency;Otherwise it is assumed that user is in non-athletic state, do not calculate user's stride frequency.The empirical value that wherein according to predetermined threshold, a large amount of physical activity data analysiss obtain, the most in one embodiment, by actual data analysis, can be set to 200 by this predetermined threshold.

In PPG frequency spectrum, upper certain interval (such as [0 at abscissa (in units of Hz), 5] in), take the peak point coordinate (a at summit in frequency spectrum (i.e. fundamental frequency frequency peak), b), frequency peak has been looked for whether near two times of frequencies or near half frequency, its peak value should be more than first predetermined percentage at fundamental frequency frequency peak, it is set greater than about 30% (the most also this value can be set as 20%, 25%, 35% etc., lower with) of fundamental frequency frequency peak (i.e. summit) the most in one embodiment;Wherein " near " excursion can be set as in one embodiment ± about 0.1 (certainly, be not excluded for the most also can this value being set as ± 0.15 etc., lower same), then, the abscissa at the frequency peak found should fall at interval [2a-0.1,2a+0.1] or interval [0.5a-0.1,0.5a+0.1] in:
If the abscissa that there are the peak point coordinate at a frequency peak in PPG frequency spectrum falls in interval [2a-0.1,2a+0.1], wherein 0≤2a+0.1≤5;And, also frequency peak it has been respectively present near corresponding fundamental frequency and near two times of frequencies in acceleration frequency spectrum, its frequency peak should each occupy the second predetermined percentage of spectrum energy, it is set greater than about 15% (the most also this value can be set as 10%, 20% etc., lower with) of spectrum energy the most in one embodiment;Wherein " near " excursion can be set as in one embodiment ± about 0.2 (certainly, be not excluded for the most also can this value being set as ± 0.15, ± 0.25 etc., lower same), the abscissa of the peak point coordinate that namely there are two peaks respectively falls in interval [a-0.2, a+0.2] (i.e. near fundamental frequency) and [2a-0.2,2a+0.2] in (near i.e. two times frequencies), wherein 0≤2a+0.2≤5;Then, then take the frequency that abscissa in PPG frequency spectrum falls at the frequency peak dot of interval [2a-0.1,2a+0.1] and calculate cadence, if the coordinate of this peak point is (c, d), then cadence=60c(step/min);It practice, the frequency of the frequency peak dot near two times of frequencies of PPG frequency spectrum is cadence, utilizes its calculating cadence namely described frequency to be multiplied by 60 thus be converted to step number per minute;
If the abscissa that there are the peak point coordinate at a frequency peak in PPG frequency spectrum falls in interval [0.5a-0.1,0.5a+0.1];And, also frequency peak it has been respectively present near corresponding fundamental frequency and near half frequency in acceleration frequency spectrum, its frequency peak should each occupy the second predetermined percentage of spectrum energy, it is set greater than about the 15% of spectrum energy the most in one embodiment, wherein " near " excursion can be set as ± about 0.2 in one embodiment, the abscissa of the peak point coordinate that namely there are two peaks respectively falls in interval [a-0.2, a+0.2] (i.e. near fundamental frequency) and [0.5a-0.2, 0.5a+0.2] in (near i.e. half frequency), then, then take in PPG frequency spectrum the frequency of fundamental frequency to calculate cadence;As described above, the coordinate of this peak point is (a, b), then cadence=60a(step/min);It practice, the frequency of PPG frequency spectrum fundamental frequency is cadence, utilizes its calculating cadence namely described frequency to be multiplied by 60 thus be converted to step number per minute.
In the above-described embodiments, when finding an other peak after finding summit, it is desirable to this peak-to-peak value, more than first predetermined percentage (such as 30%) of summit, is the probability including calculating in order to reduce the Interference Peaks caused by noise in, the accuracy calculating cadence is improved.It is obvious peak in spectrogram to ensure found one group peak (fundamental frequency peak and frequency multiplication peak), exclusive PCR peak, improving the discrimination at motion peak (motion+heart rate superposition peak), the fundamental frequency peak found and the peaks demand at frequency multiplication peak each occupy more than second predetermined percentage (such as 15%) of spectrum energy.
In above process, if after determining summit (i.e. fundamental frequency frequency peak) in PPG frequency spectrum, frequency peak is the most there is not near two times of frequencies or near half frequency, when namely can not find corresponding frequency peak to carry out cadence calculating, then according to an embodiment, chaotic by reminding step S500 to prompt the user with cadence.
If after determining summit (i.e. fundamental frequency frequency peak) in PPG frequency spectrum, frequency peak is there are near two times of frequencies or near half frequency, but there is not frequency peak near the corresponding frequency in acceleration frequency spectrum, according to above-described embodiment, namely at the interval [a-0.2 of acceleration frequency spectrum, a+0.2] and [2a-0.2,2a+0.2] or [a-0.2, a+0.2] and [0.5a-0.2,0.5a+0.2] there is not corresponding frequency peak, then according to an embodiment, calculation procedure can proceed to following process:
In acceleration frequency spectrum, upper certain interval (such as [0 at abscissa (in units of Hz), 5] in), take the peak point coordinate (m at summit in frequency spectrum (i.e. fundamental frequency frequency peak), n), having looked for whether a frequency peak near two times of frequencies or near half frequency, its peak value should be set greater than about the 30% of summit the most in one embodiment more than first predetermined percentage at fundamental frequency frequency peak;Wherein " near " excursion can be set as ± about 0.1 in one embodiment, then, the abscissa at the frequency peak found should fall in interval [2m-0.1,2m+0.1] or interval [0.5m-0.1,0.5m+0.1]:
If the abscissa that there are the peak point coordinate at a frequency peak in acceleration frequency spectrum falls at interval [2m -0.1,2m+0.1] in, wherein 0≤2m+0.1≤5;And, also frequency peak it has been respectively present near corresponding fundamental frequency and near two times of frequencies in PPG frequency spectrum, its frequency peak should each occupy the second predetermined percentage of spectrum energy, it is set greater than about the 15% of spectrum energy the most in one embodiment, wherein " near " excursion can be set as ± about 0.2 in one embodiment, the abscissa of the peak point coordinate that namely there are two peaks respectively falls in interval [m-0.2, m+0.2] (i.e. near fundamental frequency) and [2m-0.2, 2m+0.2] in (near i.e. two times frequencies), wherein 0≤2m+0.2≤5;Then, then take the frequency that abscissa in PPG frequency spectrum falls at the frequency peak dot of interval [2m-0.2,2m+0.2] and calculate cadence, if the coordinate of this peak point is (p, q), then cadence=60p(step/min);It practice, the frequency of the frequency peak dot near two times of frequencies of PPG frequency spectrum is cadence, utilizes its calculating cadence namely described frequency to be multiplied by 60 thus be converted to step number per minute;
If the abscissa of peak point coordinate that there are a frequency peak in acceleration frequency spectrum fall interval [0.5m-0.1, 0.5m+0.1] in;And, also frequency peak it has been respectively present near corresponding fundamental frequency and near half frequency in PPG frequency spectrum, its frequency peak should each occupy the second predetermined percentage of spectrum energy, it is set greater than about the 15% of spectrum energy the most in one embodiment, wherein " near " excursion can be set as ± about 0.2 in one embodiment, the abscissa of the peak point coordinate that namely there are two peaks respectively falls in interval [m-0.2, m+0.2] and [0.5m-0.2,0.5m+0.2];Then, then the frequency taking near fundamental frequency in PPG frequency spectrum the frequency peak (in i.e. interval [m-0.2, m+0.2]) calculates cadence, if the coordinate of this peak point is (r, s), then cadence=60r(step/min);It practice, the peak point frequency at the frequency peak near PPG frequency spectrum fundamental frequency is cadence, utilizes its calculating cadence namely described frequency to be multiplied by 60 thus be converted to step number per minute.
In above process, if after determining summit (i.e. fundamental frequency frequency peak) in acceleration frequency spectrum, frequency peak is the most there is not near two times of frequencies or near half frequency, when namely can not find corresponding frequency peak to carry out cadence calculating, then according to an embodiment, chaotic by reminding step S500 to prompt the user with cadence;If there is not frequency peak near the corresponding frequency in PPG frequency spectrum so that cadence calculates when cannot be carried out, chaotic again by reminding step S500 to prompt the user with cadence.
As shown in Figure 2 a and 2 b, it is the PPG signal of the user's a period of time being kept in motion the most collected respectively and spectrogram that acceleration signal obtains after fast Fourier processes.In two spectrograms, one group peak (fundamental frequency peak, two frequency multiplication peaks) all can be distributed near identical abscissa, this group peak is relevant to motion.On the PPG spectrogram shown in Fig. 2 a, except the peak relevant to motion, also can there is following simple heart rate peak or Interference Peaks.Therefore, in the embodiment in accordance with the invention, it is further added by confirming that the peak found on PPG is the step at the peak that motion causes by acceleration spectrogram auxiliary, confirms that the peak found is motion peak or motion, heart rate superposition peak;It addition, spectrum energy is limited when finding one group of peak of same distribution of another collection of illustrative plates, it is simply that in order to avoid: when having other peaks a large amount of in such as the PPG spectrogram of Fig. 2 a, the peak of non-athletic is screened, minimizing error rate.In this demonstration example, cadence=2.844*60=170.64(step/min).
As shown in Figure 3 a and Figure 3 b shows, it is the PPG signal of the user's a period of time being kept in motion collected in another example respectively and spectrogram that acceleration signal obtains after fast Fourier processes.In two spectrograms, one group peak (fundamental frequency peak, half frequency peak) all can be distributed near identical abscissa, this group peak is relevant to motion.PPG spectrogram as shown in Figure 3 a is relatively cleaner, easily tells such one group of peak, can speculate and think that heart rate is substantially superposition with motion, and the PPG spectrogram of this type is prone to analyze cadence, and the simple PPG spectrogram that passes through just can analyze cadence.But, as the PPG spectrogram of that type shown in Fig. 2 a occurs, in order to improve precision of analysis, need to combine acceleration spectrogram and be analyzed with auxiliary.In this demonstration example, cadence=2.747*60=164.82(step/min).
