Washable wearable biosensor

A washable, wearable biosensor that can gather sensor data, communicate the sensed data by wireless protocols, and permits the analysis of sensed data in real-time as a person goes about their normal lifestyle activities. The biosensor can be worn in multiple positions, can be put on or removed quickly without having to apply or remove gels and adhesives, and provides a snug, comfortable fit to gather data with minimal motion artifacts. The textile, wearable device can support integrated photoplethysmography, skin conductance, motion, and temperature sensors in a small wearable package. The supported sensors may be coupled to utilization devices by channel-sharing wireless protocols to enable the transmission of data from multiple users and multiple sensors (e.g. both sides of body, wrists or hands and feet, or multiple people). An on-board processor, or the receiving utilization device, can map patterns of the physiological and motion data to signals or alerts such as a likely seizure, drug craving, or other states that the wearer may exhibit or experience. The sensor data may be sent by wireless transmission and received by a mobile phone or other personal digital device, a computer, a favorite toy, or another wearable device. The sensors may include multiple photoplethysmographs and / or one or more EDAs which perform a time-domain measurement of skin conductance

Integrated circuit and device for mobile communications

When generating an RF test signal for mismatch calibration for receiver in order to calibrate reception mismatch of an I-phase signal and a Q-phase signal that are output from demodulated signal processing circuits coupled to mixers for receiving, a Tx VCO avoids covering the higher frequency of an RF received signal in an FDD system. An RF test signal generating unit generates, in a calibration mode of a mismatch calibration for receiver circuit, the RF test signal by using an oscillation output signal of the Tx VCO and other circuits, and supplies the same to the mixers for receiving via a switch. The RF test signal has a frequency within an RF reception frequency band that is higher than that of an RF transmission signal with the maximum frequency band of multiband radio frequency communications. By switching the switch in a reception mode, an output of a low-noise amplifier that amplifies the RF received signal received by an antenna is supplied to each of the mixers for receiving.
