Abstract:
A feature extraction apparatus configured to perform biometric information detection includes a bio-signal obtainer configured to acquire a bio-signal; and a processor configured to decompose a waveform of the acquired bio-signal into component pulses and extract a feature for the biometric information detection based on characteristic points of the component pulses.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for monitoring a bio-signal measuring condition are disclosed. The apparatus includes a bio-signal receiver configured to receive a bio-signal that is measured from a user, and a processor configured to extract any one or any combination of a waveform feature, a period feature, and an amplitude feature, from the received bio-signal, determine whether the extracted any one or any combination of the waveform feature, the period feature, and the amplitude feature are normal, using at least one predetermined determination reference corresponding to the extracted any one or any combination of the waveform feature, the period feature, and the amplitude features, and monitor a measuring condition of the received bio-signal, based on whether the extracted any one or any combination of the waveform feature, the period feature, and the amplitude feature are determined to be normal.
Abstract:
A wireless power transmission apparatus for high efficiency energy charging, includes a resonator configured to transmit power, and a power supply unit configured to supply power to the resonator. The apparatus further includes a first switching unit configured to connect the resonator to the power supply unit, and disconnect the resonator from the power supply unit, and a controller configured to control the first switching unit based on an amount of current flowing into the resonator.
Abstract:
A dietary habit management apparatus and method are provided. The dietary habit management apparatus includes a bio-signal acquirer configured to acquire a bio-signal of a user, and a processor configured to obtain a total peripheral resistance (TPR) reflected index, from the bio-signal that is acquired by the bio-signal acquirer, and determine whether the user has eaten food, based on the TPR reflected index.
Abstract:
Provided is a communication system using a space division multi-user multiple input multiple output (SD-MIMO) communication method. A transmission apparatus may transmit, to each of terminals included within a coverage, common control information commonly transmitted to the terminals and individual control information individually transmitted to each of the terminals. The transmission apparatus does not precode the common control information and transmits the non-precoded common control information. The transmission apparatus precodes the individual control information and transmits the precoded individual control information.

Abstract:
Provided is a terminal and an access point in an active mode for multi-user transmission opportunity (TXOP) power saving that may decrease power consumption by changing an operation state of the terminal from an awake state to a sleep state if there is no stream of data to be transmitted during a TXOP duration.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for wirelessly receiving and transmitting energy are provided. A wireless energy receiving apparatus in a terminal configured to wirelessly receive energy through mutual resonance between a resonator of an energy supply apparatus configured to supply the energy and a resonator of the terminal, includes an energy measuring unit configured to measure an amount of energy stored in the terminal. The wireless energy receiving apparatus further includes a control unit configured to change a state of the resonator of the terminal from a non-resonant state to a resonant state when the measured amount of energy is less than or equal to a predetermined threshold.
Abstract:
A reception apparatus having a dual reception structure includes a first receiver having a first quality (Q) factor and configured to receive a signal in a predetermined band in response to the first receiver being selected by a reception controller; a second receiver having a second Q factor greater than the first Q factor and configured to receive the signal in the predetermined band in response to the second receiver being selected by the reception controller; and a reception controller configured to select one of the first receiver and the second receiver based on interference information associated with an adjacent band adjacent to the predetermined band.
