Abstract
A bio signal measuring apparatus is provided which a receiver configured to receive a pulse signal penetrating a person to be measured, a processing unit configured to process the pulse signal to analyze a bandwidth of the pulse signal and to measure a bio signal of the person to be measured based on an analysis result on the bandwidth, and a storage unit configured to store data used to measure the bio signal.
Claims18
A bio signal measuring apparatus comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive a pulse signal penetrating a person to be measured;
- a processing unit configured to detect a pulse signal of a heart of the person from the received pulse signal, process the pulse signal of the heart to analyze a bandwidth of the pulse signal of the heart and to measure a bio signal of the person to be measured based on an analysis result on the bandwidth, wherein the pulse signal of the heart of the person is a pulse signal having penetrated through the heart of the person among the received pulse signal;
- and
- a storage unit configured to store data used to measure the bio signal,
- wherein the processing unit analyzes the bandwidth of the pulse signal of the heart, measures a heartbeat of the person to be measured according to an analysis result of the bandwidth and monitors a condition of the person based on the measured heartbeat of the person,
- wherein the processing unit calculates the bandwidth of the pulse signal of the heart,
- wherein when the bandwidth is greater than a bandwidth threshold value, the processing unit determines a period of the pulse signal having the bandwidth as a contraction period of the heart, and
- wherein when the bandwidth is smaller than the bandwidth threshold value, the processing unit determines a period of the pulse signal of the heart having the bandwidth as a distension period of the heart.
