==BIO-SIGNAL QUALITY ASSESSMENT APPARATUS AND BIO-SIGNAL QUALITY ASSESSMENT METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17940678 titled 'BIO-SIGNAL QUALITY ASSESSMENT APPARATUS AND BIO-SIGNAL QUALITY ASSESSMENT METHOD

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a bio-signal quality assessment apparatus that analyzes bio-signals to determine their quality. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

* The apparatus includes a bio-signal obtainer, which is responsible for obtaining a bio-signal.
* It also includes a processor, which processes the obtained bio-signal.
* The processor extracts periodic signals from the bio-signal.
* Based on the similarity between the extracted periodic signals and the signal variability of the obtained bio-signal, the processor determines a signal quality index.

Potential Applications:

* Medical Monitoring: This technology can be used in medical devices to assess the quality of bio-signals obtained from patients, ensuring accurate monitoring and diagnosis.
* Fitness Tracking: It can be applied in wearable devices to evaluate the quality of bio-signals such as heart rate, providing more reliable fitness tracking data.
* Sleep Monitoring: The apparatus can be used in sleep monitoring devices to assess the quality of bio-signals during sleep, aiding in sleep analysis and improving sleep quality.

Problems Solved:

* Inaccurate Bio-Signal Analysis: The technology solves the problem of inaccurate analysis of bio-signals by providing a method to assess the quality of the signals, ensuring more reliable results.
* Unreliable Monitoring: By determining the signal quality index, the apparatus helps identify and discard unreliable bio-signals, improving the overall accuracy of monitoring systems.

Benefits:

* Enhanced Medical Diagnosis: The technology improves the accuracy of bio-signal analysis, leading to more reliable medical diagnoses and treatment decisions.
* Improved Fitness Tracking: By assessing the quality of bio-signals, wearable devices can provide more accurate fitness tracking data, enabling users to make informed decisions about their health and fitness.
* Better Sleep Analysis: Sleep monitoring devices can benefit from this technology by ensuring the quality of bio-signals during sleep analysis, leading to more accurate insights into sleep patterns and quality.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A bio-signal quality assessment apparatus may include: a bio-signal obtainer configured to obtain a bio-signal; and a processor configured to extract periodic signals from the obtained bio-signal, and determine a signal quality index based on at least one of similarity between the extracted periodic signals and signal variability of the obtained bio-signal.
