The main challenge is to develop a mobile telemedicine system to transmit biosignals directly to a specialist in an emergency medical care unit for monitoring/diagnosis using an unmodified mobile telephone which provides the patient's information on the spot without unnecessary delays in seeking care, access to health facility and provision of adequate care at the facility. To provide a practical mobile telemedicine in GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS limited capacity for transmitting the cardiac data for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) which are widespread health problems with unpredictable and life-threatening consequences in most regions throughout the world, the implementation of biosignals compression technique is focused in this paper. Therefore, a new and simple target data rate (TDK) driven Wavelet-threshold based cardiac signals compression algorithm is presented for mobile telemedicine applications. The performance of the compression system is assessed in terms of compression efficiency, reconstructed signal quality and coding delay. This algorithm is tested using MIT-BIH ECG databases and qdheart PCG database records and the experimental results are compared with other Wavelet based ECG coders. The presented algorithm is less complex because it does not require QRS detection, amplitude and period normalization and period sorting.","PeriodicalId":185608,"journal":{"name":"15th International Conference on Advanced Computing and Communications (ADCOM 2007)","volume":"328 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129445284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, the large amount of handwritten material of the world, historical manuscripts and contemporary documents, are still inaccessible by search engines. We will describe our seminal work in real-time handwriting recognition which paved the way for the first deployment of end-to-end handwritten address interpretation system. We will also present loosely constrained applications such as indexing and searching hand-filled forms and unconstrained handwritten documents.

Hence analog blocks, like filters, ampli- fiers, ADCs etc. are present before digital blocks in mixed signal VLSI circuits. This imposes restrictions on access- ing directly the pins of digital blocks resulting in drop of fault coverage. So DFT techniques like boundary scan are employed to solve this problem. In this paper we propose a new methodology for testing digital blocks embedded in mixed signal VLSI circuits that reduces the DFT overhead. In this methodology we develop an algorithm based on ana- log back trace for generating and applying test patterns to these digital blocks using the on-chip analog circuitry. The scheme is shown to work reasonably even with parameter variations of the analog blocks.
