Abstract

This paper presents the chest worn pulse oximeter with integrated universal software radio peripheral (USRP) with global positioning systems (GPS) disciplined clock transceiver from National Instruments. It illustrates the respiratory cardio monitoring using the flexible reflective pulse oximeter with ECG. The gathered cardio respiratory data assessed by the microcontroller and the output is sent through to the remote monitor display by means of wireless system. The device also incorporates an early warning feature to alert both the user and the person being monitored. The GPS device is included for tracking and to determine the present location of the client in case of an emergency situation. The output is then transmitted and also displayed to a web based server via radio frequency (RF). A complete hardware prototype model is designed, developed, tested, and implemented thus validated the proposed scheme. The statistical assessment method is then integrated where the parameters gathered are assessed and evaluated.

Abstract

This paper presents the design and implementation of the power management system utilizing supercapacitors for the hybrid vehicle. The researchers develops a system that has monitoring and cell balancing using a microcontroller board which controls, monitors, and charges the battery efficiently to avoid overcharging. The system uses a generator to charge the supercapacitor utilizing it for the electric motor. The supply was in single phase form and it uses step-up transformer with 48V volts switch-mode power supply. Before storing the energy gathered from the generator, the battery will undergo for cell balancing to ensure that all battery pair are equal to each other. The power management system in the project balances the supercapacitors that are connected in series.
