In an embodiment, the signal separator may separate the human movement signal when the number of calculated ripples is smaller than the threshold value.

In an embodiment, the signal separator may separate the background noise signal if the number of calculated ripples is greater than or equal to the threshold value.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of generating a PIR signal, comprising the steps of: (a) collecting a passive infrared (PIR) signal from infrared rays input from the outside by a PIR signal collector; (b) calculating a number of ripples (RVs) defined as a shake of the signal from the collected PIR signal by the RV calculating unit; And (c) separating a human movement signal from the collected PIR signal by comparing a number of the calculated ripples with a threshold value of a predetermined number of ripples by a signal separation unit, and And a signal separation method.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the step (a) includes: collecting the infrared signal by a PIR sensor unit; Converting the collected infrared signal into a digital signal by a signal acquisition (ADC) board; And a PIR signal converted into the digital signal is stored in a signal storage unit.

In an embodiment, the step (b) may include calculating the number of ripples during an RCP (Ripple Count Period), which is a preset time interval, by the RV calculation unit.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can easily carry out the technical idea of the present invention. The present invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. In order to clearly explain the present invention, parts not related to the description are omitted, and like parts are denoted by similar reference numerals throughout the specification.

1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a sensor system according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, a sensor system 100 according to the present invention includes a PIR signal collecting unit 110, an RV calculating unit 120, and a signal separating unit 130.

The PIR signal collecting unit 110 can collect a PIR (Passive Infrared) signal from infrared rays input from the outside.

As an embodiment, the PIR signal acquisition unit 110 can set the sampling frequency of the PIR signal acquisition and the accuracy of the signal level. Specifically, a sampling frequency of 50 Hz or more and a precision higher than a specific V value can be used.

The RV calculation unit 120 may calculate a number of Ripple Values (RVs) defined as a shake of a signal from the collected PIR signals.

As an embodiment, the RV calculation unit 120 may calculate the number of ripples RV during RCP (Ripple Count Period), which is a preset time interval. That is, it is possible to analyze the shaking of the signal in the signal of the predetermined time interval. Specifically, the ripple number of the signal can be measured in a time interval of 0.1 second or more. As described above, the method of measuring the number of signal ripples in the RCP time interval can be defined as Ripple Count.

The signal separator 130 may separate the human movement signal from the collected PIR signal by comparing the calculated number of ripples with a threshold value for the number of preset ripples.

Specifically, since the number of ripples in the human movement becomes smaller than the number of ripples in the background noise, the number of ripples based on the number of ripples can be set in advance as a threshold value.

As an example, the signal separator 130 may separate the human movement signal if the number of calculated ripples is smaller than the threshold value.

In another embodiment, the signal separator 130 may separate the background noise signal if the number of calculated ripples is greater than or equal to the threshold value.

Hereinafter, a specific embodiment of the PIR signal collecting unit 110 will be described.

2 is a block diagram showing a specific embodiment of the PIR signal collecting unit described in FIG.

2, the PIR signal collecting unit 110 includes a PIR sensor unit 210, a signal collecting (ADC) board 220, and a signal storing unit 230.

The PIR sensor unit 210 can collect an infrared signal input from the outside.

The signal acquisition (ADC) board 220 may convert the collected infrared signal into a digital signal.

In addition, the signal storage unit 230 may store the PIR signal converted into the digital signal. As an example, the signal storage unit 230 may be implemented as a PC in which signals can be stored.

3 is a flowchart showing an embodiment of a signal separation method according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, the PIR signal collecting unit 110 collects a PIR (Passive Infrared) signal from an infrared ray input from the outside (S310).

As an embodiment, the PIR signal acquisition unit 110 can set the sampling frequency of the PIR signal acquisition and the accuracy of the signal level. Specifically, a sampling frequency of 50 Hz or more and a precision higher than a specific V value can be used.

Subsequently, the RV calculation unit 120 proceeds to step S320 of calculating the number of ripples (RVs) defined as the shaking of the signal from the collected PIR signals.

As an embodiment, the RV calculation unit 120 can calculate the number of ripples RV during RCP (Ripple Count Period) which is a preset time interval.

Next, the signal separator 130 compares the calculated number of ripples with a threshold value for the number of preset ripples, and separates the human movement signal from the collected PIR signal The step proceeds.

More specifically, the step S330 of determining whether the number of calculated ripples is smaller than the threshold value is performed.

Accordingly, if the calculated number of ripples RV is smaller than the threshold, step S340 of separating the signal into a human movement signal is performed.

If it is determined in step S330 that the number of calculated ripples is not less than the threshold value, the flow returns to step S310 to collect the PIR signal.

As another embodiment, if the number of calculated ripples is not smaller than the threshold value in step S330, a step of separating the signal into background noise signals may be performed.

Hereinafter, a specific embodiment of step S310 will be described.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing a specific embodiment of the PIR signal collection step described in FIG.

Referring to FIG. 4, first, the PIR sensor unit 210 collects the infrared signal (S410).

Subsequently, the signal acquisition (ADC) board 220 converts the collected infrared signal into a digital signal (S420).

Next, the PIR signal converted into the digital signal is stored in the signal storage unit 230 (S430).

Hereinafter, the results of the signal separation method according to the present invention will be described.

5 is a graph showing an embodiment in which signals are separated by the signal separation method according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, the first time interval may be a background noise signal interval, and the second time interval may be a human movement signal interval.

Specifically, when the threshold value is set to 5, since the Ripple Count (RV) of the first time interval is larger than the threshold value 7, it can be confirmed as the background noise signal interval. Since the Ripple Count (RV) of the second time interval is 1 smaller than the threshold value, it can be confirmed as the human movement signal interval.

As a result, according to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the false detection result of the human movement detection through the PIR sensor in the presence of background noise, thereby reducing the traffic of the sensor network and improving the detection reliability.

As described above, the sensor system and the signal separation method for separating the background noise and the human movement signal from the PIR sensor signal are not limited to the configuration and method of the embodiments described above, All or some of the embodiments may be selectively combined.
