DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MEASURING A PULSE WAVE AND SENSING A FALL

摘要

PURPOSE: A device and method for measuring a pulse wave and sensing a fall are provided to improve reliability by mutually compensating the pulse wave and the fall. ;CONSTITUTION: A sensor unit(101) senses acceleration and a pulse wave. A pulse wave/fall determining module(102) determines an emergency situation according to the pulse wave or fall by comprehensively inspecting a pulse signal and an acceleration signal sensed by the sensor unit. A communication module(103) transmits the determination result. The pulse wave/fall determining module frames the acceleration signal and the pulse wave and determines the acceleration signal and the pulse signal of a frame unit. The pulse wave and acceleration determining module classify the fall or general action of the user by inspecting the acceleration signal for one frame.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2011
