Description

Impedance calculation device and method for body area network channel
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of wireless communication, and particularly relates to an impedance calculation device and an impedance calculation method for a body area network channel.
Background
With the development and progress of Sensor networks and Wireless communication, wearable or implantable Sensor nodes are becoming more and more popular, so that Wireless Body Area networks (wban) are widely applied to the fields of remote healthcare, special crowd care and the like, and are one of the branches of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). IEEE established the IEEE802.15.6 working group in 2007, and released the IEEE802.15.6 standard in 2012, which greatly promoted the development of wireless body area networks. The wireless body area network is a body-centered network, and comprises a wearable sensor on the surface of a body or an implanted sensor implanted in the body, and some possible devices (such as a mobile phone or a computer).
Wireless body area networks are also an important component of the internet of things iot (internet of thining) medical service system: the body physiological data including body temperature, blood pressure, heart rate and the like are observed and collected through various sensor nodes on the surface of the body or in the body, and then the physiological data are transmitted to various communication devices of doctors, guardians and other related personnel, so that the real-time analysis and feedback of the physiological parameters of the body area network user are realized, patients, old people or other special people are better monitored, and the ambulance can be directly dispatched in case of emergency.
In the process of transmitting signals, the transmission channel continuously loses signal energy, and factors influencing signal loss mainly include resistance loss, dielectric loss, radiation loss and the like. The impedance during the transmission of the wireless signal has a great influence on the design of the communication system. If the impedance estimation is too high in the design, the design desire is reserved too much, the system power consumption is too large, and the endurance time of the portable electronic equipment is shortened. If the channel impedance is estimated insufficiently, the impedance is caused to exceed the expected impedance, and the signal attenuation is too large, which directly causes the system to fail.
Existing modeling techniques include: simulation model, experimental model. During long-term use, the following disadvantages exist:
the pure simulation model adopts a pure theoretical model, physiological parameters are assigned to the virtual grid in a finite element modeling mode, and then the signal impedance is deduced by utilizing computer simulation. The disadvantages of this approach are: the accuracy of physiological parameters is difficult to guarantee, and detection on each cell of a body is impossible. Secondly, the modeling on the contact surface of the electrode and the body is difficult.
The experimental model obtains the impedance of the appointed path and the scene through actual measurement. The disadvantages are that: the experimental conditions cannot be met, and because the impedance is expressed differently on different people, different parts, different paths and the like, the experimental model can never meet rich and diverse application scenes.
