Abstract

In the context of contactless diagnostics of human bio-parameters, wireless transmission are generally based on radio-frequency technologies. This can be a problem regarding interferences with other equipments or with interactions for human body as for example people wearing pacemakers. We present in this paper the realization of a portable device able to perform distant electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring during physical activities based on optical wireless communications. Our system is designed using on-the-shelf components and imposes constraints on sampling frequency. Therefore, even if the sampling frequency in the proposed system is not sufficient for medical diagnosis, our study shows the potentiality of using optical wireless for transmission and distant analysis of ECG data. We illustrate the performance by experimentally evaluating packet error rate of the optical wireless transmission of ECG data and we show that the heart rate is correctly evaluated when the person is moving inside a room.
