According to an embodiment of the application, a vital sign information monitoring method is provided.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a vital sign information monitoring method according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 1, the method comprises the following steps:
step S101, echo signals of a target object in a sleep state are collected through target monitoring equipment, wherein the target monitoring equipment is radar monitoring equipment which is not needed to be worn by the target object.
For example, the target monitoring device may be a millimeter wave radar. And (3) installing the millimeter wave radar equipment at the position, about 1 m away from the height of the bed surface, of the wall above the center of the bed head, and adjusting the installation angle of the millimeter wave equipment to enable the millimeter wave radar wave beam to point to the center of the bed surface. In addition, the millimeter wave radar transmits Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) signals, the signal modulation mode is sawtooth waves, and a plurality of Chirp continuously transmitted by the millimeter wave radar form a frame. And performing frequency mixing processing on the echo signal and the transmitting signal received by the millimeter wave radar to obtain a difference frequency signal, and performing high-pass filtering, low-noise amplification and ADC (analog-to-digital converter) sampling processing on the difference frequency signal to finally obtain a digitized echo signal.
And step S102, extracting a micro-motion signal for each distance unit in the echo signal.
For example, the echo signal received in each Chirp is first subjected to dc removal processing, then FFT conversion is performed, and only the positive frequency part of the converted data is retained, thereby obtaining a distance-dimensional complex signal in each Chirp. And then extracting a distance dimension complex signal of a certain fixed Chirp index of each frame, performing clutter suppression on the distance dimension complex signal of the certain fixed Chirp index of each frame in a frame time dimension, and generating a slow-scale one-dimensional range profile by using the distance dimension complex data after the clutter suppression. And then extracting the phase of a certain fixed Chirp-indexed distance-dimensional complex signal of each frame, and unwrapping the phase signal of each distance unit along the frame time dimension to obtain an unwrapped phase signal, wherein the phase signal is the micro-motion signal extracted at the slow scale.
And step S103, carrying out frequency spectrum analysis on the inching signal to obtain a chromatogram of the inching signal.
For example, to avoid interference of a strong low-frequency component in the micro-motion signal on subsequent processing, the micro-motion signal of each distance unit is first filtered along a frame time dimension, and then the micro-motion signal filtered by each distance unit is subjected to spectrum analysis, so as to obtain chromatograms at different frame times.
And step S104, monitoring vital sign information of the target object by utilizing the chromatographic spectrum of the micro-motion signal, wherein the vital sign information at least comprises the respiration rate, the respiration form and the restless legs phenomenon of the target object.
For example, when the target object is in a steady state, selecting a distance unit corresponding to the chest in the micro-motion signal chromatogram to perform peak value search along a frequency axis, thereby obtaining a respiratory rate estimation value; the breathing form of the target object can be detected by extracting the corresponding spectral peak energy of the chest distance unit and the abdomen distance unit in the micro-motion signal chromatogram and comparing the difference of the spectral peak energy of different parts, and whether the target object is in chest breathing or abdominal breathing is judged; the leg restlessness phenomenon can also be detected by analyzing the frequency spectrum characteristics of the leg distance unit in the micro-motion signal chromatogram.
The above steps S101-S104 are shown in FIG. 1, which is a diagram of the steps of the method of the present invention.
Through the steps S101 to S104, the echo signals of the target object are collected by the radar monitoring equipment which is not required to be worn by the target object, and are processed and analyzed, so that the vital sign information of the target object can be accurately monitored, the user experience is improved, and the vital sign information monitoring effect of a user is improved.
Optionally, in the vital sign information monitoring method provided in the embodiment of the present application, extracting a micro-motion signal for each distance unit in an echo signal includes: processing the echo signals to obtain a plurality of distance dimension complex signals in the Chirp; performing clutter suppression on the distance dimensional complex signals of the plurality of Chirps in each frame along a slow time dimension, and performing non-coherent accumulation on the distance dimensional complex signals subjected to clutter suppression to obtain a fast-scale one-dimensional distance image; extracting a distance dimension complex signal indexed by a target Chirp in each frame, performing clutter suppression in a frame time dimension, and generating a slow-scale one-dimensional range profile by using the distance dimension complex data subjected to clutter suppression; and extracting the phase of the distance dimension complex signal indexed by each frame of target Chirp, and unwrapping the phase signal of each distance unit along the frame time dimension to obtain an unwrapped phase signal, wherein the phase signal is a jogging signal extracted at a slow scale.
For example, the acquired echo signal of the target object is preprocessed, and a micro-motion signal of each distance unit is extracted. As shown in fig. 2, the preprocessing process includes four parts, namely, fast time distance transformation, fast scale one-dimensional distance image generation, slow scale one-dimensional distance image generation, and slow scale micro-motion signal extraction.
Wherein the fast time distance transformation process comprises: firstly, performing DC removal processing on echo signals received in each Chirp, then performing FFT (fast Fourier transform), and only retaining a positive frequency part on the transformed data to obtain each ChirpDistance dimension complex signal xn,m=[x1,n,m,...,xr,n,m,...,xR,n,m]TWhere the superscript T denotes a matrix transpose operation, R1, 2., R denotes a distance unit index, N1, 2., N denotes a Chirp index, M1., and M denotes a frame index.
Wherein, the fast-scale one-dimensional range image generation process comprises the following steps: firstly, the slow time DC removing operation is carried out on N Chirp distance dimension complex signals in a frame, namely
Figure BDA0003187766540000091
Then, non-coherent power accumulation is carried out on the distance dimension complex signal after the direct current is removed from the slow time, and a one-dimensional distance image of the frame time is obtained, namely

Wherein, the slow-scale one-dimensional range image generation process comprises the following steps: firstly, extracting a distance dimension complex signal x of the first Chirp of each frame1,mThen, clutter suppression is carried out in a frame time dimension, and a slow-scale one-dimensional range profile r is generated by using the range dimension complex data after clutter suppressionmI.e. by
Figure BDA0003187766540000093
The slow scale micro-motion signal extraction process comprises the following steps: firstly, calculating a distance dimension complex signal x of the first Chirp of each frame1,mTo obtain a phase signal vector am=angle(x1,m) Where angle (-) denotes phasing each element in the complex vector. Then, the phase signal vector is uncoiled along the frame time dimension to obtain an uncoiled phase signal vector zm=unwrap(am) Wherein unwrap (·) denotes an unwinding operation, zm=[z1,m,...zr,m,...,zR,m]TNamely the jogging signal vector at the m frame moment extracted in the slow scale.
According to the scheme, the echo signals in each chirp are processed to obtain distance dimension complex signals in each chirp, then the distance dimension complex signals in frames and frames are processed to obtain a fast-scale one-dimensional distance image and a slow-scale one-dimensional distance image, finally the phase of the distance dimension complex signals indexed by a certain fixed chirp in each frame is extracted, and then the phase signals of each distance unit are processed to obtain slow-scale micro-motion signals. By processing the collected echo signals of the target object, the micro-motion signals of each distance unit can be accurately extracted, and the subsequent frequency spectrum analysis of the micro-motion signals is facilitated.
Optionally, in the method for monitoring vital sign information provided in the embodiment of the present application, after performing clutter suppression on multiple distance dimensional complex signals of Chirp along a slow time dimension in each frame, and obtaining a fast-scale one-dimensional distance image from the distance dimensional complex signals after the clutter suppression through non-coherent accumulation, the method further includes: extracting the energy of an echo signal reflected by a target object at each frame time by using the fast-scale one-dimensional range profile; and judging whether the target object is in a stable state or a body movement state by adopting a sliding window detection method for the energy of the echo signal.
For example, when the target object is in a sleep state, the target object does not always remain stationary, but there may be irregular body movement. Body motion detection is required because body motion of the target subject can cause serious interference to vital sign signals. Therefore, the body motion detection can be carried out by utilizing the fast-scale one-dimensional distance image, and the specific method comprises the following steps: firstly, the average power w in the monitoring distance range at each frame moment is obtainedmI.e. by

Therefore, the breathing form of the target object can be detected by utilizing the micro-motion signal chromatographic spectrum, and the specific method comprises the following steps: when the target object is in a stable state, extracting the spectrum peak energy E corresponding to the chest distance unit in the micro-motion signal chromatogramchestAnd simultaneously extracting the corresponding spectral peak energy E of the abdomen distance unitabdomenFrequency of spectral peak search thereinThe interval is 0.1 Hz-0.6 Hz, and the log (E)chest/Eabdomen)>η2When the measured value is positive, it is judged as chest respiration, and log (E)chest/Eabdomen)<η3It is judged as abdominal respiration.

For example, the frame frequency of the FMCW signal transmitted by the millimeter wave radar is 50Hz, and the frequency component of the signal of interest in the inching signal is lower than 10Hz, so that the inching signal of each distance unit is extracted along the frame time dimension to obtain the inching signal with the frame frequency of 10 Hz. In order to avoid the interference of stronger low-frequency components in the inching signals on subsequent processing, the inching signals of each distance unit are filtered along the frame time dimension, the type of the adopted filter is an IIR band-pass filter, the order of the filter is 8, and the pass band range is 0.1 Hz-5 Hz. And then, carrying out short-time Fourier transform (STFT) on the micromotion signal filtered by each distance unit to obtain the chromatographic spectrums at different frame moments, wherein the data window length of the STFT is 9 seconds, and the sliding window stepping is 1 second.
