The security of vulnerable senior citizens through dynamically sensed signal acquisition

Abstract

AbstractTraditional signal recognition methods generally use biosensors for signal acquisition. With senior citizens, sensor signal acquisition will be affected by their movements. These signal fluctuations are large, and if the signal area cannot be fixed, it may result in problems such as data loss. The most important issue caused by data loss is the safety for vulnerable seniors. Therefore, here we study abnormal behavior recognition based on dynamic sensing. In this paper, we look to improve the problems that exist in traditional methods. Using the SW‐520D sensor, activity signals of the elderly are first collected. By comparing the received signal strength sets, dynamic sensor data flow of the abnormal behavior for senior citizens can be determined. A multiple linear regression estimation method is used to solve the problem of data loss in dynamic sensor data flow environments. We obtain system parameter thresholds in both area isolation and segmentation using the stochastic resonance method. From this, a direct notch is constructed that enters the dynamic sensor data stream, and the interference component filtering of abnormal behavior signals is processed. The amplitude‐frequency response feature extraction method is used for high‐precision isolation and segmentation of abnormal behavior signal areas such as falls, improving the accuracy of senior behavior signal recognition, and realizing safety monitoring for the elderly. The improved method was used to identify the signals of abnormal behaviors of young people. The minimum recognition error rate was only 2%, the recognition accuracy rate was as high as 98%, and the calculation time was only 19 ms.
