Abstract

The reliability of health monitoring system always comprises its capability to perform accurate physiological data acquisition which is obtained from designated biosensors that are attached to a patient’s body. Proper digital signal processing techniques need to be executed efficiently on various stages such as noise cancellation, auto-correlation and filtering to achieve better signal quality. In this project, digital signal controller (DSC) is developed to deliver the capability of onboard signal processing power while at the same time provides integrated control mechanism to the overall health monitoring system. The DSC design includes a single chip solution approach which integrates RISC processor and DSP cores on a reconfigurable platform. A modified instruction set design is structured to perform signal processing tasks during the signal acquisition stage. The processed signals are stored on common memory module to be utilized by either a RISC processor or a DSP core for the next stages. Overall, the DSC is functioning as a robust sensorreading platform that ensures reliable data acquisition through its signal processing tasks. Implementation of the DSC as a single-chip solution also has reduced the overall surface area by minimizing the number of components on-board.
