Sleep state management device, sleep state management method, and sleep state management program
A sleep state management device includes a sensor that detects movement in bedding where a measurement subject is sleeping, and a control unit that calculates a peak value difference, which is a difference between adjacent peak values in a detection signal outputted from the sensor, determines that a period in which a number of times the peak value difference exceeds a threshold is greater than a predetermined value is a period in which the measurement subject has moved, and manages the sleep state of the measurement based on a result of the determination.
1. A sleep state management method comprising:
a peak value difference calculation step of calculating a peak value difference that is a difference between adjacent peak values in a detection signal outputted from a sensor unit that detects vibration of a bed in which a measurement subject is sleeping;
a first body movement determination step of determining that a period in which a number of times the peak value difference exceeds a threshold is greater than a predetermined value is a period in which the sensor unit has detected vibration, said period including a plurality of unit segment periods;
a sleep state recording step of recording the sleep state of the measurement subject using a result of the determination made in the first body movement determination step;
a maximum/minimum difference calculation step of finding a maximum/minimum difference that is a difference between a maximum value and a minimum value in the detection signal in each unit segment period; and
a second body movement determination step of determining that the unit segment period in which the maximum/minimum difference exceeds a second threshold is a segment period in which the measurement subject's body has moved,
wherein the sleep state recording step further comprises recording the sleep state of the measurement subject using a result of the second body movement determination step.
2. A sleep state management program stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium for causing a computer to execute the steps of the sleep state management method according to claim 1 .
