Before explaining the present application in further detail, terms and terminology involved in the embodiments of the present application will be explained, and the terms and terminology involved in the embodiments of the present application are applicable to the following explanation:
<1> cochlear implant: the artificial cochlea is an electronic device, an external speech processor converts sound into an electric signal with a certain coding form, and an electrode system implanted in the human body directly excites auditory nerves to restore or reconstruct hearing functions of a deaf person.
<2> register: the function of the register is to store binary codes, which are composed of a combination of flip-flops having a storage function. One flip-flop can store 1-bit binary code, so that a register storing n-bit binary code is formed by n flip-flops.
<3> crystal oscillator: an electronic oscillator circuit for mechanical resonance of a piezoelectric material vibrating crystal; it will create an electrical signal of a given frequency, which is typically used to provide a stable clock signal.
The embodiment of the application provides a method for detecting the power-on initialization and the shedding of an artificial cochlear implant chip, a system of the method for detecting the power-on initialization and the shedding of the artificial cochlear implant chip and a storage medium for storing an executable program for realizing the method for detecting the power-on initialization and the shedding of the artificial cochlear implant chip. With respect to implementation of the method for initializing power-on and detecting drop of the cochlear implant, the embodiment of the application will be described in terms of exemplary implementation scenarios of initializing power-on and detecting drop of the cochlear implant.
As shown in fig. 1, a flow chart of a method for initializing power-on and detecting falling off of a cochlear implant chip according to an embodiment of the present application is shown, where the flow chart includes the following steps:
step S101: the external master device sends a carrier wave and a return instruction to the internal slave device.
Specifically, the process of sending the carrier wave and the return instruction to the in-vivo slave device by the in-vitro master device specifically comprises the following steps:
and the external master device sends a preset carrier wave to the internal slave device so as to charge the power supply capacitor of the internal slave device for power-on operation.
Preferably, in the embodiment of the present application, a preset carrier with a period of 100ms is selected, and the preset carrier can be enough to fully charge the capacitance of the in-vivo slave device, so that the in-vivo slave device can be adapted to the power-on operation under the medium with different thickness. It should be understood that, the different thickness mediums related to the embodiments of the present application refer to scalp tissue thicknesses of different wearers of the cochlear implant, and because the scalp tissue thicknesses of each person are different, the scalp tissue thicknesses are thin and thick, and the carrier wave with too small period cannot penetrate thicker scalp tissue, so that the master device and the slave device are not connected smoothly. Therefore, the embodiment of the application selects the carrier wave with the period of 100ms, can cover scalp tissues penetrating through media with different thicknesses, and ensures smooth communication between the master device and the slave device.
After the in-vivo slave device is powered on, the in-vivo slave device is in a waiting calibration state, then the in-vitro master device sends a plurality of continuous empty frames to the in-vivo slave device, and the in-vitro master device sends radio frequency clock and data signals to the in-vivo slave device so as to calibrate carrier timeout and crystal oscillator of the in-vivo slave device.
Preferably, in the embodiment of the present application, the number of continuous null frames is 5 frames, and such continuous null frames can occupy the minimum storage resource while meeting the requirement of calibration aging between the master device and the slave device.
Preferably, the calibration method of the in-vivo slave device in the embodiment of the present application includes, but is not limited to: carrier timeout calibration and crystal oscillator calibration. The in-vivo slave device generates a carrier overtime signal through a clock provided by the crystal oscillator, after receiving a carrier sent by the in-vitro master device, the in-vivo slave device internally calibrates a timer in the in-vivo slave device in a multiple approximation mode, and the in-vivo slave device gradually calibrates the internally generated carrier overtime signal to the frequency identical to the received carrier frequency sent by the in-vitro master device.
After calibration, the external master device continues to transmit electrical signal data to the internal slave device. And setting the in-vivo slave device to an initialized state by taking the register parameter of the initialized in-vivo slave device as a preset value. After the configuration is completed, the external master device sends a return instruction to the internal slave device at preset time intervals so as to complete real-time detection of the communication state between the master device and the slave device.
In some examples, the stimulation data sent by the in-vitro master device to the in-vivo slave device refers to pre-encoded electrical signals used to configure register parameters in the in-vivo slave device. The purpose of sending the preset coded electric signal data is to help the initialization operation of the in-vivo slave device, and after the in-vivo slave device receives the specific coded electric signal sent by the internal and external master devices, the in-vivo slave device is configured in the artificial cochlea to perform initialization configuration on a register therein, and the initialization state of the in-vivo slave device is set to be a preset value. For example, "1" may be selected as the initialization state preset value, but the embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific symbol content of the first identifier.
Preferably, the external master device sends a feedback command to the internal slave device at a preset time interval of 1 second, so as to complete real-time detection of the communication state between the master device and the slave device. Notably, are: if the external master device sends a return instruction to the internal slave device at an overlong time interval, the external master device occupies less resources but causes lower sensitivity of drop detection; conversely, if the external master device sends a return instruction to the internal slave device at too short a time interval, the sensitivity of the drop detection can be improved, but more resources are occupied. In view of this, the time interval of sending the feedback instruction from the external master device to the internal slave device is preferably set to 1 second through experience in clinical practice and feedback of the wearer, and the time interval has an optimal technical effect, and can skillfully balance the occupation of resources and the sensitivity of shedding detection, so that the occupation of resources of the cochlear implant storage medium can be minimized on the basis of realizing real-time shedding detection when the preset time interval is 1 second.
Step S102: the external master device receives the feedback information responding to the feedback instruction from the internal slave device, and performs power-on initialization operation on the internal slave device according to the feedback information.
Specifically, the power-on initialization procedure of the in-vivo slave device is as follows:
first, if the external master device receives the feedback information as a first identifier, the power-on initialization of the internal slave device is completed.
Further, after detecting that the power-on initialization of the in-vivo slave device is completed, the method further performs an operation of transmitting pairing verification to the in-vivo slave device by the in-vitro master device. If the verification information of the in-vivo slave device is matched with the in-vitro master device, the in-vivo slave device is successfully paired, and the power-on initialization operation of the artificial cochlea is completed; if the verification information of the in-vivo slave device is not matched with the in-vitro master device, the in-vivo slave device is failed to pair; the in-vivo slave device resets with all electrodes shorted to ground, and the in-vitro master device resends the carrier wave to the in-vivo slave device to charge the capacitance of the in-vivo slave device to perform the power-up operation again.
In some examples, the first identifier is used to characterize that the slave device in the body completes the power-on initialization, for example, "1" may be selected as the first identifier, but the embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific symbol content of the first identifier.
And secondly, if the external master device receives the feedback information as a second identifier, the power-on initialization failure of the internal slave device is indicated.
After detecting that the power-on initialization of the in-vivo slave device fails, the in-vivo slave device resets, and the in-vitro master device sends a carrier wave to the in-vivo slave device again to charge the capacitor of the in-vivo slave device so as to perform power-on operation again.
In some examples, the second identifier is shown to be used to characterize that the slave device in the body completes the power-up initialization, for example, "0" may be selected as the second identifier, but embodiments of the present application are not limited to the specific symbol content of the second identifier.
Step S103: the external main equipment carries out falling detection on the external main equipment through the feedback information sent by the internal slave equipment, and the process comprises the following steps:
it should be noted that, if the backhaul information sent by the external master device through the internal slave device is null, that is, the external master device does not receive any identifier, the external master device continues to send a preset communication connection protocol to the internal slave device, so as to retest the communication state between the external master device and the internal slave device. If the external master device still does not receive any identifier, the external master device can be judged to drop.
