CORE CONCEPT BEHIND THIS PAPER Normal pulse rate of a human being is 60 to 100 beats/min . If we , the human beings suffer (by any means – physically or mentally) pulse rate WHY PULSE RATE RATHER THAN will be affected first (body temperature also gets TEMPERATURE ? affected) . If pulse rate changes below or above
4 As mentioned already , external temperature Small battery is provided for this part which of body also changes in case of sufferings but should be rechargeable or a solar cell). not in all cases . For example in case of some heart problems , external temperature of our body remains constant . Infact sensing temperature and using it in the suggested system is easy because temperature sensor can be in-built within cell OPERATION phone . Thus short range transmission is avoided A device that detects electro chemical reducing the complexity of the suggested system . reactions on skin surface of a living organism that But pulse rate varies for almost all the cases . corresponds to the biomedical signals within that So we are opting for pulse rate rather than organism is called ‘ biopotential electrode. temperature . INTERNAL CIRCUITRY Sensors used to convert body phenomena such as pulse rate ,heat , pressure , blood flow or motion , into electrical signals are classified as transducers. IMPLEMENTATION The overall suggested system is visualized as follows :
Here, we use pulse sensors in abnormality detector which senses the pulse rate of the human body and converts it into electrical signals ( in the range 10 micro volt to 5 milli volt). This should be amplified for further processing . Voltage corresponding to normal puse rate ( arbitrarily chosen as 80 beats/min ) is pre- ABNORMALITY DETECTOR determined by pulse sensor and amplified .This is This abnormality detector is kept around reference voltage Vref is applied at B. Voltage the wrist so that it can keep track on user’s corresponding to pulse rate is determined by (cell phone user’s) pulse rate. This can be pulse sensor and amplified to the same amount as achieved by placing detector on user’s watch. Vref . This is voltage Vuser is applied at the terminal A. Output of differential amplifier
5 corresponding to maximum tolerable variation in Vuser is given by threshold voltage Vthres and is given to inverting terminal of D of the comparator. Output of differential amplifier is given to non-inverting terminal C of comparator. If Receiver section the voltage at C exceeds voltage at D ( threshold voltage ) , then output of comparator becomes high and then SRT activator activates the short range transmitter . With advancement in VLSI technology above circuit can be fabricated in a small chip and it can be placed even in a Instead , if we transmit digital data ( n bit watch as suggested . ) , as message , then 2^n users can be serviced . At receiver section ( in handset ) , output of SHORT RANGE TRANSMISSION decoder circuit ( it will be designed such that In this short range transmission , short it’s output will be 1 ( high ) only if particular is range transmitter is a part of the abnormality received ) is high then cellphone is made to send detector and short range receiver ( it is given a help signal . separate small battery so that it is on Depending on number of users , n can be independent of handset’s on/off state) is a part of selected . the cell phone.If the short range transmitter is activated , transmits the signal at particular CELL PHONE frequency in the unlicensed spectrum (in GHZ On receiving the signal from short range range ). As name indicates , it should transmit for transmitter , cell phone , using the transistor switch , only short distance (low power transmitter).The switch on the handset (if necessary ) .Then , it receiver in the cell phone must be pre tuned to transmits help signal to MSTO using existing that particular frequency. If it receives the signal, cellular system. then the cell phone will sends help signal through its reverse control channel using the existing mobile communication system . DIGITAL DATA TO INCREASE NUMBER OF USERS : If we use ordinary FM transmitter , then assigning separate frequencies for large number of users will be a great problem. Transmitter Section

For this , in each cell site , apart from the If cell is in off state , and if short range base station , two towers are used. These two receiver receives signal (i.e, output of short range towers and base station should be placed such receiver is high ,then cellphone is switched on by that they cover the entire cell site and depending cell phone activator using Squeleche’s circuit. on their received signal strength , draw the If cell phone is in ON state, then cell phone circles keeping transmits the help signal using existing system But if it is in OFF state , then Squelch circuit is used to switch on the cell phone. R1 , R2 are selected such that when output of SRR is high, then only voltage across R2 will be high enough to bias the transistor Q2 . Then Q1 also conducts . Since Q1 each of them as centre . Point of the intersection is parallel to ON/OFF switch of cell phone , if of 3 circles gives the exact location of the user . Q1 conducts, it act as short circuit and hence the Here two towers used are not entirely base cell phone is switched on . Then ,cellphone station but just transceivers. So it is economical . transmits help signal using existing system They inform the strength of the signal received to base station and base station can locate the user exactly ( with strength of signal at 3 places ) as explained in the fig .Thus, MTSO can locate the cell phone (user).
MEDICAL ASSISTANCE MTSO , after locating , sends medical help via ambulance . Mean while it activates the alarm circuit in the cell phone so that medical team MTSO can find the victim easily , and rescue them . MTSO on receiving the help signal from any cellphone , first it should locate the user ADVANTAGES OF SUGGESTED SYSTEM first , sends medical assistance and should This suggested system will work even if activates the alarm signal in the user’s cellphone . cell phone is in OFF state by switching on it using cell phone activator, Even if the user is in LOCATING THE VICTIM BY TRI CIRCLE a big house alone and if he is affected by mild METHOD heart attack or some other health problem , Depending on the strength of signal automatically he will get medical help received at base station ,The approximate distance immediately . of user from the base station can be determined.

(Track Point is the little button embedded in dumped altogether -- it's likely that voice-recognition the keyboard of some laptops). IBM Researchers have software will be used to make calls, a capability that transferred TrackPoint technology to a ring, which is already commonplace in many of today's cell looks something like a black-pearl ring. On top of the phones. Simply say the name of the person you want ring is a little black ball that users will swivel to move to call and the phone will dial that person. IBM is also the cursor, in the same way that the TrackPoint button working on a miniature rechargeable battery to power on a laptop is used. these components. This Track Point ring will be very valuable when monitors shrink to the size of watch face. In the coming age of ubiquitous computing, displays will no longer be tied to desktops or wall screens. Instead, you'll wear the display like a pair of sunglasses or a bracelet. Researchers are overcoming several obstacles facing these new wearable displays, the IBM's magic decoder rings will flash when you get most important of which is the readability of a call. information displayed on these tiny devices. The same ring that flashes for phone calls could also inform you that e-mail is piling up in your inbox. This flashing alert could also indicate the urgency of the e-mail.
