세미나 제목 : Energy-Efficient Circuits and Systems for Biomedical Applications: Towards Preemptive, Proactive and Pervasive Healthcare

발표초록 : 

Chronic diseases account for over 1/3 of deaths around the world. To mitigate the impact of such diseases, healthcare paradigm is now shifting from reactive illness management towards proactive and preemptive health management; the goal here is to maintain healthy life in the first place, or prevent illness from getting any worse by continuously monitoring health during normal daily life. Wearable healthcare is an attractive means to realize continuous and pervasive health monitoring, yet its unique and harsh environment gives circuit designers many challenges. 

To solve the issues, this talk covers three topics of biomedical microsystem design under the umbrella of wearable healthcare. The talk will begin with the planar-fashionable circuit board, a textile-based platform that enables pervasive healthcare system. After that, circuit design strategy for biomedical sensors will be introduced. Both analog front-end and digital back-end will be shown with examples. Then I will move on to wearable Body Area Network (BAN), where we will review its various system aspects. Low energy circuit techniques to overcome their limitations will also be discussed. Finally, I will conclude the talk with several wearable healthcare system implementation examples.
