Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following description is to aid the understanding and practice of the present invention, but not to limit the present invention thereto.

The U-Health Health System for personal health management of the present invention is composed of a biometric system and a mobile gateway, and then a network server and a mobile client capable of monitoring personal health in real time.

In the present invention, the u-healthcare system can monitor various bio-signals in real time and selects electrocardiogram (pulse), blood oxygen saturation, respiration, blood pressure, body temperature, and the like. The configuration of the biometric system and the mobile gateway based on Android used in the present invention is shown in FIG.

In the measurement module of the biosignal system, the sensing unit measures a biosignal of each individual, removes noise, and the amplification unit removes noise generated from the measured biosignal and generates a signal form capable of processing a biosignal. The amplified biosignal is converted into a health index by the health signal processor through an ADC, and the calculated health index is transmitted to an Android-based gateway through Bluetooth.

In the biosignal measurement system, the electrocardiograph can give a lot of information about the heart's activity, so it uses the Wilson center point principle to detect the electrocardiogram as an essential test for cardiac function. Blood pressure is a good physiological variable that indicates cardiovascular status and can save lives from death by warning you of dangerous high blood pressure symptoms. In addition, respiration was measured using the property that the alternating impedance in the chest of the subject, which is an impedance pneumograph, changes with breathing. The following is an explanation of the Android-based mobile gateway. 2 is a flowchart of a gateway using an Android-based mobile platform. The algorithm of the mobile gateway can be described by dividing it into two areas. The first analyzes the received data into headers and data through a parser for protocol interpretation and outputs the analyzed data through a graphical user interface. Blood pressure was measured remotely using two-way communication. Secondly, the received raw data is transmitted through the WiFi / 3G network to the wireless Internet network.

In addition, the case healthcare system in the present invention implements a network server and a mobile client so that the data transmitted from the gateway using the Android-based mobile platform can be transmitted to the user to remote monitoring. As shown in FIG. 3, the data transmitted from the wireless gateway is delivered to the server through the Internet network, and the server delivers the data to various users, and the transmitted data is output as graphs and numeric data through the mobile client of each user.

4 is a flowchart of a network server, which is classified into a broadcast server and a service. The broadcast server manages the addition and deletion of clients connected to the network and transmits the information by using the information of the connected clients. The broadcast service is responsible for receiving a signal and transmitting it to a client.

5 shows an overall system flow diagram of a mobile client. First, the socket is initialized to connect to the network, and after connecting to the network, data is transmitted and received through the created thread. Measurement data from a remote location is delivered to a server through an Android-based gateway and monitored by a mobile client through a network server. As the client display information, basic information such as pulse rate per minute, oxygen saturation level, blood pressure, and body temperature is displayed.

In the u-Healthcare system to be implemented in the present invention, the biosignal measurement system is composed of a main board and each sensor module as shown in FIG. 5. The biometric sensor module includes an electrocardiogram, a respiration module, an oxygen saturation module, and a blood pressure module. The board sends various biosignals from the biosignal processing part to the screen display device for display, an alarm function notifying the user of the risk of the result obtained from the biosignal, and the user adjusting or recording alarm values of various monitoring. Consists of user interface function, wireless data transmission part for the purpose of confirming. Android-based gateway divides header and data through receiving protocol. Bio-analyzed headers and data allow you to display wave and numeric data in graphical mode. Then, the raw data is transmitted to the network server using the WiFi / 3G network.

As shown in FIG. 7, the network server receives a signal sent from the gateway for transmitting the biosignal to the connection thread of the gateway.

The server operates separately from the broadcasting server and the service. The server manages the network connection and the addition and deletion of the connected client and broadcasts. However, specific functions related to broadcasting perform functions by dividing the broadcasting service into a purpose of receiving a signal and a purpose of sending a signal. When it receives a signal from the gateway, it is responsible for sending a signal to all connected monitor clients. 8 illustrates a program function of a communication flow between a mobile client and a broadcasting server in a class diagram of a mobile client. Start the mobile client to run on the mobile monitor that is in charge of the main screen on the mobile client. The mobile network receiving service opens the socket. This is done using a client thread. The client monitors if there is information from the broadcast server. The received information is sent to the monitor class as a handle for processing.

[Experimental Example]

To evaluate the implemented system, we simulated using biometric data. In the simulation, random virtual data that could occur in each module was created and transmitted, and the transmitted data was tested for normal operation in each design system. In addition, experiments were conducted directly on humans. FIG. 9 is a result of exposing numerical data obtained by protocol analysis of the transmitted data as an experimental result of transmitting virtual data. 10 and 11 show the output result in the graphics mode. FIG. 10 shows that the wave data and the numeric data can be output from the Android-based Galaxy tab in the mobile client, and FIG. 11 is the result of outputting only the numeric data from the Android-based smartphone that is a mobile client.

Next, the experiments were set up as shown in FIG. It shows a biometric system and an Android-based mobile gateway. And the result of the experiment on human directly in the proposed u-healthcare system is shown in FIG. The figure shows the designed mobile gateway, network server, and each mobile client, and the screen of each system shows the result of the post-measurement transmission signal.

In the system proposed and implemented in the present invention, the wireless living system side, the mobile gateway based on Android, and the broadcast type server are also mobile clients.

In order to evaluate the proposed system, experiments were conducted on virtual experiments and real people. As a result of each experiment, the proposed system was found to operate stably. Therefore, the proposed system showed the possibility of developing into a U-healthcare system by experimenting with gateways and clients using an Android-based mobile platform.
