研究目的
To develop a non-invasive smart monitoring system using multi-core fiber optic interferometers for detecting body activities (on the bed, off the bed, body movement) and respiration rate during sleep, addressing the need for user-friendly and secure health monitoring for elderly individuals.
研究成果
The smart monitoring system based on multi-core fiber-optic interferometers successfully detects three body activities (off the bed, on the bed, body movement) and calculates respiration rate (e.g., 8 bpm). It offers advantages such as light weight, compact construction, electromagnetic immunity, and non-invasive operation, making it suitable for elderly health monitoring. Future work could focus on enhancing algorithm robustness and testing in varied environments.
研究不足
The system's performance may be limited by the sensitivity of the fiber sensor to micro-strain and environmental factors. Optimization of fiber lengths and coupling efficiency is required, and the system's accuracy in diverse real-world scenarios needs further validation.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The system uses a fiber-optic interferometer based on a seven-core fiber (SCF) sandwiched between multi-mode fibers (MMF) to create interference among cores. An algorithm is optimized to process collected data for activity identification and respiration rate calculation.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Data is collected from users on a bed using the fiber sensor embedded in the mattress, with signals representing body activities and respiration.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Includes a laser source (Amonics, 1550nm DFB Laser Source), attenuator, MSM fiber sensor (SMF-MMF-SCF-MMF-SMF), photodetector (PD), data acquisition (DAQ) card, computer, fusion splicer (Fujikura LZM-100), optical spectrum analyzer (YOKOGAWA, AQ6370), SCF from YOFC, and MMF.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Fabricate the interferometer by splicing SCF to MMF using a fusion splicer. Set up the system with laser source, attenuator, MSM sensor, PD, DAQ card, and computer. Collect light intensity signals at 200 Hz sampling rate. Process data using algorithms to extract jitter levels and apply Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) for respiration frequency.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Use an algorithm to extract jitter levels from raw data for activity classification and FFT to determine respiration rate from frequency peaks.
