What the inventor drew attention to is that though with the form of particular circuit configurations embodiments of the invention have been made explanation in the above description, these explanations should not be considered to limitation of the present invention.For the person of ordinary skill of the art, above-mentioned each circuit all can have multiple known implementation method.For example, at Willis J.Tompkins and John G.Webster, EDS, " SignalProcessing-Hardware versus Software " (signal processing-hardware and software), inDesign of Microcomputer-Based Medical Instrumentation, London, Prentice-Hall International, Inc., 1981; Sergio Franco, " Nonlinear Circuits " (nonlinear circuit), in Design with Operational Amplifiers and AnalogIntegrated Circuits-2 NdEdition, New York, The McGraw-Hill Companies, 1997 and M.J.Burke, " Low-power ECG amplifier/detector fordry-electrode heart rate monitoring " (the low power ECG amplifier/detector that is used for dried electrode rhythm of the heart), Medical ﹠amp; Biological Engineering ﹠amp; Computing, vol.32, pp.678-83 has just put down in writing the example of some specific implementations of above-mentioned each circuit in 1994 lists of references such as grade.
Next will be with reference to figure 1, Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 to describing according to the described signal of embodiment of the invention top point searching method.
Fig. 2 is the flow chart according to the described signal of embodiment of the invention top point searching method.As shown in Figure 2, at first, in step 210, measured signal is transfused to, and the measured signal of being imported can be from ECG signal or light change in volume trace signal, and its type signal waveform is shown in 310 among Fig. 3.Then, in step 220, measured signal is input to circuit steering detection circuit 120 (see figure 1)s, and in step 230, be subjected to electric current and turn to detection, along with electric current produces turning to as waveform 310, steering detection circuit 120 will correspondingly be exported the square pulse signal to on-off circuit 160, and its typical waveform is shown in 340.Because turning to all at each electric current, circuit steering detection circuit 120 can export the square pulse signal, therefore these signals can not be represented the position of the top point of input signal, so need do further filtration to these signals, with the irrelevant square pulse signal of filtering those and top point.Meanwhile, measured signal also is input to top point testing circuit 130, and in step 240, top point testing circuit 130 top point to measured signal detects, and output top point signal.Then, in step 250, the amplitude of the top point signal of top point testing circuit 130 outputs is subjected to the adjusting of amplitude regulating circuit 140, and is output to amplitude comparison circuit 150.In step 260, amplitude comparison circuit 150 to measured signal amplitude and the amplitude of the output signal of amplitude regulating circuit compare, and according to control signal of comparative result output.Circuit steering detection circuit 120 will correspondingly be communicated with under the control of this control signal or be cut off with outfan 170, specifically, if the amplitude of measured signal is greater than the amplitude of the output signal of amplitude regulating circuit, then on-off circuit 160 conductings, and then the output (step 270) of open circuit steering detection circuit, otherwise then on-off circuit cuts out, and then the output (step 280) of shut-off circuit steering detection circuit.At last, measurement signals (having the signal waveform shown in 350) is output to the external equipment (step 290) such as signal processor by outfan 170.
The purpose of above-mentioned steps 240 to 260 is for the irrelevant signal of filtering the square pulse signal of being exported from the electric current steering detection circuit those and top point.But those of ordinary skill in the art should be understood that the technological means of the non-top point signal of filtering is not limited in above-mentioned concrete grammar.For example, also can adopt low pass and high pass filter to carry out the method for filtering.Because ECG signal and light change in volume trace signal are in the only all procuratorial work of making top point of the present invention, its effective spectrum that applies to is greatly between 0.5 hertz to 30 hertz.And therefore the frequency spectrum of noise, can adopt low pass and high pass filter the noise-filtering of non-signal mostly near direct current or 50 hertz.But the design reference example of low pass and high pass filter such as following document: Sergio Franco, " ActiveFilters:Part I " (active filter: chapter 1), in Design with Operational Amplifiersand Analog Integrated Circuits-2 NdEdition, New York, The McGraw-HillCompanies, 1997.
