The pulse wave sensor IIL may measure. pulse wave signal, including a photoplethys- mography (PPG) signal, from an object. The pulse wave sensor I1T includes a ight source which emits light onto an ‘Objet, anda detector which detects light emitted bythe light ouroe and scattered or reflected from body tissives sich as skin surface, vessels, andthe like 10059] The light source may include light emiting diode (LED), a laser diode (LD), a fuorescent body: and the ks, but isnot limited thereto, The detector may include 2 photo diode, a photo transistor (PT, an image sensor (e.g, CMOS, image sensor), and the like, ut isnot limited thereto, The pulbe wave sensor £11 may include an array ofa plurality of light sources andlor detectors if necessary In particular, the plurality of fight sourees may emit light of different wave Fengths, and may be space apart at diferent distances from the detector, [0060] The fingerprint sensor 112 may obtain fingerprint seasor information from a user. In paticlar, the fingerprint sensor information may’ inchude information on each pixel intensity of the fingerprint sensor 112 which is measured ‘when the user touches the fingerprint sensor H12 by using hisher finger or another body part. In one exemplary ‘embodiment, the fingerprint sensor 112 may bea capacitive Fingerprint sensor, but is not limited thereto. For conve- nienee of explanation, the following description will be made by using @ capacitive fingerprint sensor as an example [0061] In the case in whieh the fingerprint sensor U12 is a ‘capacitive fingerprint sensor, each pixel intensity may refer to capacitance accumulated on each pixel. For example, when a finger of a user touches the sensor part 110 10 measure bio-informaton, capacitance is aceumulated on ‘each pixel of the fingerprint sensor 112. The capacitance ‘accumulated on each pixel is wenerally changed in response to-a change ina duration and an area of contact between the finger and the fingerprint sensor 112, [0062] FIG. 24 illustrates a rear surface ofa smart device 20 jnchuding @ bio-information measuring apparatus 100, ‘cconling 10 an exemplary embodiment. The bio-informa- tion measuring apparatus 100 may inckude an image sensor Feb. 6, 2020 21 and a sensor par 1 disposed onthe rear surface of the Smart device 20."The image yensor 21 may capture an image fof a user, and the sensor part 20 may include a fingerprint sensor 112, In FIG. 2A, the image sensor 21 and the sensor part 11 including the fingerprint sensor 12 are amounted on the rear surface, but the present exemplary embodiment is ‘not limited thereto. For example, the fingerprint sensor 112 ray’ he mounted at a Trent surface (e.g, al a lower front surlace) of due smart device 20. In particular, the fingerprint sensor 112 may be disposed a te lower front surface, and the pulse wave sensor 111 may be disposed around the fingerprint sensor 112 [0063] FIGS. 2B and 2C illustrate various examples of Sinictire of the sensor part 10. For example, ay illustrated in FIG. 2B, the light source of the pulse wave sensor 11 is Aisposed at one side of the fingerprint sensor 112, and the detector may be disposed on the other side ofthe fingerprint sensor 112 In another example, as illustrated in FIG. 2C, the Tight source and the detector ofthe pulse wave sensor 111 ‘nay be dispose altemately on both sides ofthe fingerprint sensor 112."The fingerprint sensor 112 may be formed in Various shapes such as a circular shape, a triangular shape, fd the like. The pulse wave sensor IIT may be disposed ‘equally on al sides of the fingerprint sensor 112. Alterna tively. in the case in which the ingegprint sensor 112 is made of a ligh-ransmiting material, the pulse wave sensor 111 may be disposed below the fingerprint sensor 112, in which the detector may be disposed atthe center ofthe fingerprint sensor 112, and a plurality of fight sources may be disposed ‘round the detector, [0064] ‘The processor 120 controls the sensor part 110 in response tothe request for measuring bio-information. The processor 110 may be electrically connected with the sensor pert 10. The processor 120 may receive a pulse wave signal ‘nd fingerpriat sensor information feom the sensor pt 120, ‘and may measure bio-nformation based on the received pulse wave signal and fingerprint sensor information, [0065] For example, upon receiving the fingerprint sensor information, the processor 120 may estimate a between an object and the sensor part 110, by using each pixel intensity included in the fingerprint Sensor informa tion. Upon estimating the contact area, the processor 120 ‘may’ measute bio-information based on the received pulse ‘Wave signal and the estimated contact are, In particule, the bio-information may include a heart rate, blood pressure, vascular age, arterial slillnes, aortic pressure waveform, vascular compliance, stress index, degree of fatigue, and the like, but is not limited thereto. [0066] FIG. 3 iso diggram illustrating an example of a configuration of a processor of FIG, 1. FIGS. 4A to 4B are siagrams explaining an example of measuring bio-informa~ tio, [0067] Referring to FIG. 3, the processor 300 acconing to fn exemplary embodiment inclades a contact area estimator 310, a contact pressure obtainer 320, and a measurer 330. [0068] As llustated ia FIG. 4A, once finger touches the Sensor part 110, the fingerprint sensor 112 obtains fingerprint Sensor information and transmits the obtained fingerprint Sensor information to the cont area estimator 310. Upon receiving the finger sensor information from the fingerprint sensor I12, the contact area estimator 310 may estimate a contaet area of the finger by using the fingerprint sensor information US 2020/0037956 Al [0069] FIG. 4B illustrate a relationship between a contact area increase and pixel intensity increase. The contact area ‘estimator 310 may estimate a contact area based on pixel intensity values included in the fingerprint sensor informa- tion For example, the contact area estimator 10-may calculate a statistical value of each pixel intensity. ln par- ticular the statistical value may be various valves such as 8 simple sum, a Weighted sum, an average, a median value, tnd the lke of pixel intensities, but i not limited thereto Upon ealeuatng the statistical va, the contact area esti- ator 310 may caleuate a contaet area using the statistical value by applying predefined contact arca conversion function to the statistical value. In panicular, the contact area ‘conversion fuetion may be defined as a lincan’non-lincar ‘combination function, and the like [0070] Once the contact area is estimated, the contact pressure obtainer 320 may obiain a contact pressure signal berwoen the object and the pulse wave sensor 111 fom the ‘estimated contact ares. For example, when « user's finger touches the fingerprint sensor 112 with gradually increasing foce, to increase contact pressure between the finger and the fingeeprin sensor 112, the contact area becomes wider, sch that it can be seen that there is # eorelation betwaen the ‘contact area and the contact pressure. Accordingly, by applying a contact pressure conversion funetion which rep resents a comelation between the contact ana and the ‘contact pressure, the contact pressure obtainer 320 may’ ‘obiain the contaet pressure from the contact area, The oot ese conven atin may epee a 10071] Further, when a user's finger touches the sensor part 110 to measure bio-information, the pulse wave sensor TIL measures «pulse wave signal from the object. In particular, while the user's finger touches the sensor part M0, the wer may gradually increase the eontact pressure herwaen the finger and the sensor part 110 by touching the sensor part 110 with gradually increasing free during measurement of bic-information, Alternatively, at the begine hing of measurement of bioenformation, when a user's Finger touches the sensor 110 witha pressure intensity qa to or higher than a predetermined threshold, the wser may radually decrease the contact pressure between the finger ‘andthe sensor part 110 by ouehing the sensor part 110 with, tradually decreasing force. 10072] Once the contact pressure signal is obtained, the measurer 330 may measure bio-information based on the pulse wave signal and the contact pressure signal. For ‘example, the messurer 380 may measire blood pressure by Using’ an oscillometric method. The meaeurer 330-may ‘bina an oscillometric waveform by using the pulse wave signal and the contact pressure signal, and may measure bioinformation by using the obtained oscillametric wave- form.
