TIME-BASED CRITICAL OPIOID BLOOD OXYGEN MONITORING

A system for critical time-based opioid monitoring system includes a physiological monitoring system having a sensor and a system processing board, a computing device configured to receive the parameters, an indication of normal conditions of a user under the circumstances at the time, such as, for example, a body transfer function or user physiological parameter model, to compare the monitored parameters to the normal conditions, and sending a notification when the monitored parameters deviate from the normal condition of a user. A system to monitor for an opioid event includes a physiological monitoring system comprising a sensor configured to monitor physiological parameters and a signal processing board, a computing device to detect an opioid overdose, and a device to stimulate a response when the computing device detects an opioid overdose event is occurring.

METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM FOR IDENTIFYING AND QUALIFYING DEVICES FOR WIRELESS SENSING

Methods, apparatus and systems for device identification and qualification for wireless sensing are described. In one example, a described system comprises: a transmitter configured to transmit a wireless signal through a wireless multipath channel of a venue, wherein the wireless multipath channel is impacted by a movement of an object in the venue; a receiver configured to receive the wireless signal through the wireless multipath channel, wherein the received wireless signal differs from the transmitted wireless signal due to the wireless multipath channel and the movement of the object; and a processor. The processor is configured for: obtaining a number of time series of channel information (TSCI) of the wireless multipath channel based on the received wireless signal, computing a time series of motion analytics (TSMA) based on the number of TSCI, computing an information of a target device based on the TSMA. The target device is one of: the transmitter, the receiver, or an additional device in the venue. The information of the target device comprises at least one of: an identity, a name, a label, a tag, or a location.
