Using sophisticated wireless and miniaturization  technologies, the BioRadio  150 provides  physiological data acquisition that  is  untethered  thus  allowing  the  users  to  move  freely  while  monitoring  their  own physiological signals on the PC.  The BioRadio 150  system can be standalone or may accompany  a  number  of  application  programs  that  are  developed  by  CleveMed  for specific research and education applications (if purchased with the BioRadio 150, details of the application software will be described separately).

The User Unit is carried by the person (on  the  belt)  and  is  responsible  for  acquiring  the  physiological  signals  from  sensors attached on the body.  The User Unit processes the physiological signals and wirelessly transmits it to the Computer Unit using CleveMed’s proprietary telemetry protocol. The Computer  Unit  receives  the  data  from  the  User  Unit  and  forwards  it  to  a  PC.  The BioRadio Capture Lite software displays and stores the data on the PC.     User Unit (Figure 2):    The User Unit has a total of 12 acquisition channels.  It acquires data from up to 11 external physiological sensors (placed on the User’s body) and from  one internal  sensor  that measures motion or  position of the User Unit  itself.  The User Unit incorporates state-of-the-art wireless technology in the Industrial Scientific Medical 902 – 926 MHz (ISM) band.  The User Unit is battery powered (2 AA) that lasts for at least 12 hours continuous use.  The User Unit is turned on / off with a toggle switch located on the side of the enclosure.   11 external sensors:  The eleven external sensors can be placed on various locations on the body to sense various types of physiological signals.  The eleven external sensors can be further divided into four categories of sensors:  Category 1: 8 biopotential signals such as Electroencephalogram (EEG), Electromyogram (EMG)  and  Electrocardiogram  (ECG).    Figure  1  illustrates  an  example  where  4 bioptential signals are connected to the User Unit: 2 EMG (arms), 1 ECG (chest), 1 EEG (head). Category 2:  1 oxygen saturation sensor (SpO2). Category 3:  1 airflow sensor (differential). Category 4:  1 auxiliary DC input.  The  first  category  of  sensors,  biopotential  sensors,  are  off-the-shelf electrodes  such  as snap-type electrodes or gold cup electrodes that attach to the body on one end and plug directly  into  the User  Unit  on  the other  end (Figure 1).   The  second category,  oxygen saturation sensor, is specific to the BioRadio 150 system and wraps on the User’s index.  The airflow sensor uses off-the-shelf nasal cannula that can monitor the User’s breathing.  The  last  category  of  external  sensors,  Auxiliary  DC,  can  be  used  to  hookup  to  other monitors such as blood pressure monitors capable of producing an analog output voltage (0-2 V).  1 Internal Sensor:  The internal position sensor can be used to sense the position or movement  of  the  User  Unit;  therefore  the  internal  sensor  can  be  used  to  detect  the movement of the USER provided the User wears the User Unit (as shown in Figure 1).

As mentioned earlier, the Computer Unit is responsible for receiving the data from the User Unit, demodulates it and sends it to the PC.  Similar to the User Unit, the Computer Unit contains a radio transceiver that operates in the 900 MHz ISM band.  The Computer unit is powered from the PC and thus has no external power  supply.    Also,  the  Computer  Unit  has  no  On/OFF  switch  or  any  other  user accessible parts.  Once plugged into the PC, the Computer Unit is automatically detected by the PC and awaits for data from the User Unit.     Figure 3.

The program has a sub-menu on the right-hand side of the screen that provides information about the device and the data as well as allows the user to select basic functionality.  Under the Control sub-menu (Figure 4) the software allows the user to Start and Stop acquisition, change display update rate, and to Save the data.  The Device sub-menu displays the name of the device that is connected to the PC (BioRadio 150) and the COM port name used for the connection.  Additionally, the Device sub-menu allows the user to change the sampling rate (100 Hz to 960 Hz per channel) and change the transmission frequency from channels 1 through 85.  The Signal sub-menu provides feedback to the User regarding the fidelity of the acquired signal (good packets is a measure of error free signal received from the User Unit, Bad packets is a measure of received but corrupted packets, Dropped packets is a measure of data lost due to interference.  As mentioned earlier, specific application software maybe purchased.  Figure 4.  BioRadio Capture Lite software CleveMed Proprietary Information
