Abstract
During operation, a measurement sensor in an electronic device may perform radar measurements associated with an individual, where the radar measurements include information corresponding to a physiological signal of the individual. Then, the electronic device may analyze the radar measurements to extract an amplitude and/or a phase of chest motion on or proximate to an anterior surface and/or a posterior surface of the individual. Moreover, the electronic device may map an amplitude and/or a phase of the chest motion on or proximate to the anterior surface and/or the posterior surface to one or more anatomical locations associated with an organ of the individual. Next, the electronic device may detect whether the type of arrhythmia is present based at least in part on the mapped amplitude and/or the phase.
Claims20
An electronic device, comprising:
- a measurement sensor;
- a computation device, coupled to the measurement device and memory, configured to execute program instructions;
- the memory configured to store the program instructions, wherein, when executed by the computation device, the program instructions cause the electronic device to perform one or more operations comprising:
- performing, using the measurement sensor, radar measurements associated with an individual, wherein the radar measurements comprise information corresponding to a physiological signal of the individual;
- analyzing the radar measurements to extract an amplitude and/or a phase of chest motion on or proximate to an anterior surface and/or a posterior surface of the individual;
- mapping the amplitude and/or the phase of the chest motion on or proximate to the anterior surface and/or the posterior surface to one or more anatomical locations associated with an organ of the individual;
- and
- detecting whether a type of arrhythmia is present based at least in part on the mapped amplitude and/or the phase.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for use in conjunction with an electronic device, the computer-readable storage medium configured to store program instructions that, when executed by the electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform one or more operations comprising:
- performing, using a measurement sensor, radar measurements associated with an individual, wherein the radar measurements comprise information corresponding to a physiological signal of the individual;
- analyzing the radar measurements to extract an amplitude and/or a phase of chest motion on or proximate to an anterior surface and/or a posterior surface of the individual;
- mapping the amplitude and/or the phase of the chest motion on or proximate to the anterior surface and/or the posterior surface to one or more anatomical locations associated with an organ of the individual;
- and
- detecting whether a type of arrhythmia is present based at least in part on the mapped amplitude and/or the phase.
A method for remotely assessing an individual for a presence of a type of arrhythmia, comprising:
