Electronic device including a blood pressure sensor
An electronic device includes a display unit, a pressure sensor unit, a blood pressure sensor unit, and a driving unit. The driving unit includes a first calculator configured to calculate a first blood pressure based on a pressure signal received from the pressure sensor unit and a first pulse wave signal received from the blood pressure sensor unit in a first blood pressure measurement mode, and a second calculator configured to calculate a second blood pressure by comparing a second pulse wave signal received from the blood pressure sensor unit in a second blood pressure measurement mode with the first pulse wave signal received in the first blood pressure measurement mode.
1 . An electronic device, comprising:
a housing accommodating a display unit, a pressure sensor unit, and a blood pressure sensor unit, wherein the pressure sensor is configured to receive a pressure applied by a user
and
a driving unit,
wherein the driving unit comprises:
a first calculator circuit configured to calculate a first blood pressure based on a pressure signal received from the pressure sensor unit and a first pulse wave signal received from the blood pressure sensor unit, in a first blood pressure measurement mode of the driving unit; and
a second calculator circuit configured to calculate a second blood pressure by comparing a second pulse wave signal received from the blood pressure sensor unit, in a second blood pressure measurement mode of the driving unit, with the first pulse wave signal received in the first blood pressure measurement mode of the driving unit,
wherein the first blood pressure is calculated using both the pressure signal received from the pressure sensor unit and the first pulse wave signal received from the blood pressure sensor unit, and the second blood pressure is calculated by comparing the first pulse wave signal received from the blood pressure sensor unit and the second pulse wave signal without the pressure signal.
2 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the second calculator circuit is further configured to determine the second blood pressure by comparing the first pulse wave signal and the second pulse wave signal in terms of a period, an amplitude, an area, a feature point, and/or a quadratic differential function graph.
3 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first pulse wave signal and the second pulse wave signal are pulse wave signals for a same body part of a same person.
4 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the electronic device is configured to contact a part of a user's body that applies pressure to the electronic device for a first measurement time in the first blood pressure measurement mode and is further configured to contact the part of the user's body for a second measurement time in the second blood pressure measurement mode.
5 . The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein the first measurement time is within a range of 5 to 80 seconds, and the second measurement time is less than or equal to the first measurement time.
6 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first blood pressure is a reference blood pressure, and the second blood pressure is a monitoring blood pressure.
7 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the blood pressure sensor unit comprises a light source and a photodetector.
8 . The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the display unit is configured to display an image in an upward direction, and the light source and the photodetector are disposed facing downward.
9 . The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the blood pressure sensor unit is disposed under the display unit, and the housing comprises a light transmitting portion configured to transmit examination light emitted from the light source and reflected from an object.
10 . The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the blood pressure sensor unit is disposed on a bottom surface of a bottom portion of the housing.
11 . The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the display unit is configured to display an image in an upward direction, the blood pressure sensor unit is disposed under the display unit, and the light source and the photodetector are disposed facing upward.
12 . The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein the display unit comprises an optical hole at least partially overlapping each of the light source and the photodetector.
13 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the display unit comprises a light emitting pixel comprising a light emitting layer which emits examination light of the blood pressure sensor unit.
14 . The electronic device of claim 13 , wherein the display unit further comprises a light receiving pixel comprising a photoelectric conversion layer which receives the examination light.
15 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the driving unit further comprises a memory configured to store the first pulse wave signal received from the blood pressure sensor unit in the first blood pressure measurement mode as a reference pulse wave signal.
