CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
This chapter gives the brief description about the need for wireless patient monitoring system and its importance. This chapter also gives the brief description about scope of the project and design methodology. Patient Monitoring System is a process where a surgeon can continuously monitor more than one patient at a time in remote place.
Heartbeat Monitoring System In transmitter circuit the Heat Beat is measured by LED and LDR, then it is applied to the microcontroller. The Microcontroller maintains the records of the measured readings. It compares the measured heart beat with the normal readings and checks it is within the normal range or not. If it is normal, then it keeps record of the same and the readings in SMS(Short Messaging Service) form to the specified mobile number. The time specified for sending message is given by the user.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
2.1 INTRODUCTION
Embedded systems are one of the emerging technologies which are touching every nook and corner of the mind. It is impossible to live without these embedded gadgets-says ELECTRONICS magazine. From the above statement, the liveliness of embedded system can be understood. Data communications is one of the most rapidly growing commercial market areas today, especially wireless communications. In the past few years, wireless data communications has grown from an obscure and expensive curiosity into a practical and affordable communication and networking technology. The convenience of wireless is very appealing as not to deal with running cables to and from devices in order to interconnect them, and wireless devices can be moved to any location within the transmission range, while still being able to communicate and broadcast data. Due to this, it is expected that wireless data communications will become even more popular and more extensively used in the medical field. Currently the most popular method of wireless communications is radio frequency transmission. As these devices have a very low power consumption and power output, perhaps more importantly devices can achieve good data transmission rates.

Heartbeat Monitoring System well, but have certain limitations that prevent the product from becoming a genuine solution, especially in newer applications. Flash memory is a non-volatile memory combining the advantages of EPROM/EEPROM, ROM, and DRAM. There may be differences between the specific technologies used by different manufacturers but their basic principle is same. For example, Intel Flash memory use NOR gates, while Samsung memory uses NAND gates. The technology used by Intel is further classified based on the core memory cell. The first technology is the original single-bit/cell flash memory which allows a single bit of information to be stored in each cell (1=erased and 0=programmed). The second and the most recent technology uses a multi-level cell structure, for example, Intel Strata Flash memory. This technology allows two bits of information to be precisely stored in a single transistor. Programming a cell (charge placement) and reading (sensing) must be precisely controlled in order to have four states within a single transistor. According to Intel, the multi-level cell flash memory employs a reliable NORbased architecture and is ideally suited for high-density applications.
GND Ground. Port 0 Port 0 is an 8-bit open drain bi-directional I/O port. As an output port, each pin can sink eight TTL inputs. When 1s are written to port 0 pins, the pins can be used as high-impedance inputs. Port 0 can also be configured to be the multiplexed low-order address/data bus during accesses to external program and data memory. In this mode, P0 has internal pullups. Port 0 also receives the code bytes during Flash programming and outputs the code bytes during program verification. External pull-ups are required during program verification. Port 1 Port 1 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port. Port pins P1.2 to P1.7 provides internal pull-ups. P1.0 and P1.1 requires external pull-ups. P1.0 and P1.1 also serves as the positive input (AIN0) and negative input (AIN1), respectively, of the on-chip precision analog comparator. The Port 1 output buffers can sink 20 mA and can drive LED displays directly. When 1s are written to Port 1 pins, they can be used as inputs. When pins P1.2 to P1.7 are used as inputs and are externally pulled low, they will source current because of the internal pull-ups. Port 1 also receives code data during Flash programming and program verification. Port 2 Port 2 is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-ups. The Port 2 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s are written to Port 2 pins, they are pulled high by the internal pull-ups and can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 2 pins that are externally being pulled low will source current (IIL) because of the internal pull-ups. Port 2 emits the high-order address byte during fetches from external program memory and during accesses to external data memory that use 16-bit addresses (MOVX @ DPTR). In this application, Port 2 uses strong internal pull-ups when emitting 1s.
Heartbeat Monitoring System During accesses to external data memory that use 8-bit addresses (MOVX @ RI), Port 2 emits the contents of the P2 Special Function Register. Port 2 also receives the high-order address bits and some control signals during Flash programming and verification. Port 3 Port 3 is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-ups. The Port 3 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s are written to Port 3 pins, they are pulled high by the internal pull-ups and can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 3 pins that are externally being pulled low will source current (IIL) because of the pull-ups. Port 3 receives some control signals for Flash programming and verification. Port 3 also serves the functions of various special features of the AT89S51, as shown in the following table.
RST Reset input. All I/O pins are reset to 1s as soon as RST goes high. Holding the RST pin high for two machine cycles, while the oscillator is running will reset the device. Each machine cycle takes 12 oscillator or clock cycles. XTAL1 Input to the inverting oscillator amplifier and input to the internal clock operating circuit.

Heart beat sensor is designed to give digital output of heat beat when a finger is placed on it. When the heart beat detector is working, the beat LED flashes in unison with each heart beat. This digital output can be connected to microcontroller directly to measure the Beats Per Minute (BPM) rate. It works on the principle of light modulation by blood flow through finger at each pulse. 3.2.1 Features Microcontroller based SMD design Heat beat indication by LED Instant output digital signal for directly connecting to microcontroller Compact Size Working Voltage +5V DC 3.2.2 Applications Digital Heart Rate monitor Patient Monitoring System Bio-Feedback control of robotics and applications 3.2.3 Using the Sensor Connect regulated DC power supply of 5 Volts. Black wire is Ground, Next middle wire is Brown which is output and Red wire is positive supply. These wires are also marked on PCB.

Heartbeat Monitoring System To test sensor you only need power the sensor by connect two wires +5V and GND. You can leave the output wire as it is. When Beat LED is off the output is at 0V. Put finger on the marked position, and you can view the beat LED blinking on each heart beat. The output is active high for each beat and can be given directly to microcontroller for interfacing applications.
The sensor consists of a super bright red LED and light detector. The LED needs to be super bright as the maximum light must pass spread in finger and detected by detector. Now, when the heart pumps a pulse of blood through the blood vessels, the finger becomes slightly more opaque and so less light reached the detector. With each heart pulse the detector signal varies. This variation is converted to electrical pulse. This signal is amplified and triggered through an amplifier which outputs +5V logic level signal. The output signal is also indicated by a LED which blinks on each heart beat. Following figure shows signal of heart beat and sensor signal output graph. Fig.2 shows actual heart beat received by detector (Yellow) and the trigger point of sensor (Red) after which the sensor outputs digital signal (Blue) at 5V level.

Fig.3 shows target pulse rates for people aged between 20 and 70. The target range is the pulse rate needed in order to provide suitable exercise for the heart. For a 25year old, this range is about 140-170 beats per minute while for a 60-year old it is typically between 115 and 140 beats per minute.

The heart beat is sensed with help of an LED and LDR arrangement. The LED is a high intensity type LED. Here the LDR is the sensor. As Sensor, a photo diode or a photo transistor can be used. The skin may be illuminated with visible (red) or infrared LEDs using transmitted or reflected light for detection. The very small changes in reflectivity or in transmittance caused by the varying blood content of human tissue are almost invisible.

The various noise sources may produce disturbance signals with amplitudes equal or even higher than the amplitude of the pulse signal. Valid pulse measurement therefore requires extensive preprocessing of the raw signal. The new signal processing approach presented here combines analog and digital signal processing in a way that, both parts can be kept simple but in combination, they are very effective in suppressing disturbance signals. The setup described here, uses a red LED for transmitted light illumination and a LDR as detector. With only slight changes in the preamplifier circuit the same hard- and software could be used with other illumination and detection concepts. The detectors photo current (AC Part) is converted to voltage and amplified by an operational amplifier (LM358).

RESULT
The Heartbeat Monitoring System is the part of Patient Monitoring System, can be extended to measure other parameters of patien like ECG & temperature etc. Temperature is measured using DS1820, which gives temperature to current conversions in 200ms and it does not require any external circuitry. Hence it is simple and easy to measure temperature. This measured temperature is displayed over an LCD display via microcontroller. Heart Beat is measured by passing an high intensity red light through a finger which is collected by LDR, amplified and displayed over an LCD display via microcontroller. These two measured parameters are encoded and transmitted via GSM Modem. On receiving the readings and current status of patient, the doctor can take necessary actions or suggest his sub-ordinates for the same.

CONCLUSION
Biomedical engineering (BME) is the application of engineering principles and techniques to the medical field. It combines the design and problem solving skills of engineering with medical and biological sciences to improve patients health care and the quality of life of individuals. A medical device is intended for use in the diagnosis of disease, or in the cure, treatment, or prevention of diseases. Thus in Implementation of Wireless Systems for Patient Monitoring System, the heart beat and body temperature are successfully sensed. Temperature is measured using DS1820, where it follows on board proprietary temperature measurement technique. Heart beat is measured using LED, LDR and operational amplifier. Hence both parameters are displayed on a LCD display. Then both the parameters are transmitted and displayed in a distant location. This project will eventually reduce man power in the very near future.
