[0002] With the large-scale application of IoT technology in medical settings, the centralized management and operational status monitoring of anesthesia equipment in operating rooms increasingly rely on wireless networks and device-side sensor nodes. Currently, mainstream medical IoT data dissemination and ledger location management mostly utilize radio frequency (RF) communication technology. However, the electromagnetic radiation generated by RF signals in enclosed spaces can easily cause electromagnetic interference to surrounding highly sensitive life support equipment and monitoring instruments, posing a significant safety hazard in the operating room environment, which demands high electromagnetic compatibility.

[0003] Aging tubing and gas leaks in anesthesia equipment during service are critical monitoring indicators for centralized management. The industry commonly uses photoacoustic spectroscopy for trace gas detection. Existing photoacoustic sensing devices require dedicated excitation light source systems to excite specific gas molecules. In conventional equipment upgrades, technicians typically overlay existing RF communication modules with independent photoacoustic sensing modules on the outside of the anesthesia device. This physical splicing results in communication and sensing operating on two separate hardware chains, preventing hardware resource reuse at the underlying physical level. This not only fails to solve the fundamental electromagnetic interference problem but also inevitably increases the physical footprint of the receiving node and the overall system power consumption due to the need to drive the dedicated excitation light source for extended periods, making it difficult to meet the practical engineering requirements of miniaturization and low power consumption in modern medical equipment.

The frame structure of the communication demodulated data is parsed to extract the coordinates of the base station.

[0010] Preferably, in step S4, the step of running the concentration inversion algorithm to calculate the leakage concentration based on the photoacoustic pressure signal includes: The change in sound pressure generated by the expansion of gas flowing into the photoacoustic resonant cavity after absorbing low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope light energy is obtained, and the change in sound pressure is converted into the photoacoustic pressure signal.

[0014] Secondly, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a centralized management system for anesthesia equipment based on the Internet of Things, the system comprising: The signal transmission module acquires device commands and uses a frequency division multiplexing algorithm to fuse the high-frequency communication envelope carrying the device commands with the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope with locked resonance characteristics, thereby controlling the light-emitting diode array to emit a composite optical signal.

[0018] Figure 1This is a flowchart of a centralized management method and system for anesthesia equipment based on the Internet of Things proposed in this invention. Figure 2 This is a system module diagram of a centralized management method and system for anesthesia equipment based on the Internet of Things proposed in this invention. Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example

[0020] In a first embodiment of the present invention, the present invention provides a centralized management method for anesthesia equipment based on the Internet of Things, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps: Step S1: Obtain device instructions, and use a frequency division multiplexing algorithm to fuse the high-frequency communication envelope carrying the device instructions with the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope with locked resonance characteristics, and control the light-emitting diode array to emit composite optical signals; In step S1, the step of fusing the high-frequency communication envelope carrying device commands with the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope of locked resonance characteristics using a frequency division multiplexing algorithm to control the light-emitting diode array to emit a composite optical signal includes: The frequency value of the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope is strictly matched to the inherent acoustic resonant frequency of the underlying photoacoustic resonant cavity. The DC lighting bias data, high-frequency communication envelope, and low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope are superimposed in the frequency domain to calculate the driving data, which is then output to the LED array for broadcasting.

[0021] Specifically, in step S1, the control terminal of the centralized management system receives and parses the device instructions issued for the anesthesia equipment within the region. The device instructions consist of a binary data sequence containing the device identification code, status query request, and parameter configuration information. The system extracts the device instructions, converts the digital baseband signal into a waveform signal suitable for transmission through the spatial optical channel, and generates a high-frequency communication envelope.

[0022] Simultaneously, the system generates a low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope to stimulate the target anesthetic gas molecules to produce a photoacoustic effect. The low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope consists of periodic waveforms at specific frequencies, which are used to induce periodic thermal expansion of the gas molecules at the subsequent receiving end.

[0023] The system executes a frequency division multiplexing (FDM) algorithm, allocating the spectral range of the high-frequency communication envelope and the spectral range of the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope to mutually isolated independent frequency bands in the frequency domain. The high-frequency communication envelope is configured in the megahertz band for carrier modulation, while the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope is configured in the kilohertz band. By setting the center frequency and allocating guard band intervals, the system ensures that the downlink data communication signal and the sensing excitation signal are protected from cross-frequency overlap interference during spatial transmission and separation at the receiving end.

[0024] In step S1, the step of controlling the light-emitting diode array to emit a composite optical signal by fusing the high-frequency communication envelope carrying the device command with the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope of the locked resonance characteristic through the frequency division multiplexing algorithm includes the following execution process.

[0025] First, the frequency value of the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope is strictly matched to the inherent acoustic resonant frequency of the underlying photoacoustic resonant cavity.

[0026] The physical geometry of the underlying photoacoustic resonator defines its standing wave amplification capability for sound waves of a specific frequency. The system pre-reads the structural parameters of the photoacoustic resonator mounted on the IoT device and calculates its inherent acoustic resonant frequency based on a one-dimensional resonant acoustic physical model. The inherent acoustic resonant frequency is determined by the following formula: ; in, The first-order longitudinal natural acoustic resonant frequency represents the underlying photoacoustic resonant cavity. This represents the speed of sound propagation of the target anesthetic gas under standard atmospheric pressure conditions. It represents the effective physical length of the internal channel of the underlying photoacoustic resonant cavity.

[0027] The system control unit precisely locks the carrier frequency of the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope to the calculated inherent acoustic resonant frequency. This frequency-locking mechanism causes the light power emitted by the LED array to be generated in a frequency-locked manner. The oscillation is periodic. When the beam enters the photoacoustic resonant cavity and is absorbed by the gas, the gas expands due to heat, generating an initial sound wave of the same frequency. The frequency of this initial sound wave is the same as the frequency of the cavity's intrinsic standing wave mode, and the cascade amplification of the physical sound pressure signal amplitude is achieved by utilizing the cavity's own resonant quality factor.

[0028] Secondly, the DC lighting bias data, high-frequency communication envelope, and low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope are superimposed in the frequency domain and the driving data is output to the LED array for broadcasting.

[0029] To maintain the LED array light-emitting devices in the forward conduction linear response range, and to take into account the static lighting brightness index of the operating room environment, the system sets a constant amplitude DC current as the DC lighting bias data.

[0030] The system calculation module performs a linear addition operation on the DC lighting bias data, high-frequency communication envelope signal, and low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope signal in the time domain to construct a composite driving current signal for driving the LED to emit light. The superposition calculation of the composite driving current signal is based on the following formula: ; in, This represents the composite drive current signal output to the LED array at the corresponding moment, and represents the magnitude of the constant DC bias current corresponding to the DC lighting bias data. The amplitude control coefficient representing the envelope of high-frequency communication. The normalized digital baseband modulated signal represents the instruction carried by the equipment, and the high-frequency carrier frequency represents the high-frequency communication envelope. The amplitude control coefficient representing the envelope of low-frequency acoustic excitation. This represents the normalized low-frequency acoustic excitation baseband signal. This represents the inherent acoustic resonant frequency of the aforementioned match.

[0031] The system control module will calculate the composite drive current signal. The signal is converted into corresponding analog voltage and current outputs to the driver chip of the LED array. Responding to fluctuations in the composite drive current signal, the LED array, through the electro-optic conversion characteristics of semiconductor devices, emits a composite optical signal whose instantaneous optical power is linearly related to the drive current into the space environment. The instantaneous power output equation of the composite optical signal is as follows: ; in, The instantaneous output optical power represents the composite optical signal broadcast by the LED array into free space. This represents the effective electro-optical conversion efficiency constant of the LED array.

[0032] The composite optical signal is broadcast to the surrounding environment in the indoor physical space, covering the physical coordinate area where the anesthesia equipment is located, and completing the transmission of downlink data transmission commands and the transmission of sensor-driven energy for the Internet of Things node.

[0033] Step S2: Collect mechanical vibration rhythm data, identify the end-expiratory phase in the mechanical vibration rhythm data through feature extraction algorithm, and generate a timing gating opening signal in the interval corresponding to the end-expiratory phase; Step S2, which involves collecting mechanical vibration rhythm data and identifying the end-expiratory phase in the mechanical vibration rhythm data using a feature extraction algorithm, includes the following steps: The mechanical vibration rhythm data of the bellows is collected by calling microelectromechanical sensors, and the time peak of the mechanical vibration rhythm data is extracted by zero-crossing detection algorithm; The maximum pressure range corresponding to the time peak is defined as the end-expiratory phase.

[0034] Specifically, the system uses microelectromechanical sensors to collect mechanical vibration rhythm data of the bellows and extracts the time peak of the mechanical vibration rhythm data using a zero-crossing detection algorithm.

[0035] A microelectromechanical accelerometer (MEMS) sensor is attached to the outer surface of the bellows in the breathing circuit of the anesthesia device. During the mechanical ventilation cycle of the anesthesia device, the reciprocating motion of the bellows and the periodic changes in internal airway pressure are converted into physical vibrations of the shell. The MEMS sensor detects these physical vibrations and converts them into continuous analog voltage signals. The analog-to-digital converter within the microcontroller unit performs discretization sampling of this analog voltage signal at a set sampling rate, outputting a set of mechanical vibration rhythm data consisting of a time series, denoted as […]. ,in Represents the discrete time sampling point number.

[0036] To eliminate high-frequency mechanical vibration waves that are not part of the respiratory rhythm in the environment, the microcontroller unit processes the mechanical vibration rhythm data. Perform a low-pass filter operation to output a smoothed rhythm signal. Subsequently, the processor runs a zero-detection algorithm to calculate... The first-order backward difference is used to locate the time point where the peak occurs. The formula for calculating the first-order backward difference is as follows: ; in, Represents discrete time points The amplitude difference calculation results at the point, This represents the amplitude of the smooth rhythmic signal at the current sampling point. This represents the amplitude of the smooth rhythmic signal from the immediately preceding sampling point.

[0037] The system iterates through the data in chronological order. Numerical sequence. When a point is detected in the sequence... ,satisfy When the condition is met, the determination is made at the time point. When the smooth rhythm signal changes from an increasing trend to a decreasing trend, a zero-crossing derivative phenomenon occurs. The microcontroller will record the time point at which this zero-crossing derivative phenomenon occurs. Extract and record the time peaks as mechanical vibration rhythm data .

[0038] Secondly, the maximum pressure range corresponding to the time peak is defined as the end-expiratory phase.

[0039] In the physical process of mechanical ventilation in anesthesia equipment, the bellows vibration amplitude reaches its time peak. The operating state corresponds to the physical condition where the airflow within the breathing circuit is compressed to its physical limit and the internal air pressure reaches its maximum. This physical condition occurs at the boundary between the end of the patient's expiratory phase and the initiation of the inspiratory phase. The system uses the extracted time peaks... Using the central reference time point, fixed time offsets are extended in the leading and lagging directions of the time axis, respectively. Extracting the closed time window The system directly labels the region corresponding to this time window as the end-expiratory phase interval. The aforementioned time offset... The values ​​are calculated and assigned in reverse based on the mechanical ventilation frequency set by the anesthesia equipment to ensure that the time window of the closed interval covers the highest steady-state maintenance period of the circuit air pressure.

[0040] Finally, the system determines whether the current hardware clock is within the aforementioned end-expiratory phase interval. When the hardware clock enters... Within the specified time range, the microcontroller output pin of the IoT device's end node generates and outputs a high-level timing gating open signal; when the hardware clock exceeds this closed time range, the output pin switches to a low level. The duration of the high-level state is equal to the physical time length of the calibrated end-expiratory phase interval. Through the above steps, the system establishes a dynamically adjusted physical time window based on the device's operating rhythm, restricting subsequent photoacoustic sensor acquisition to the time period when the internal pressure of the anesthesia device is at its maximum and physical leakage characteristics are most pronounced.

[0041] Step S3: In response to the timing gate opening signal, open the air intake valve of the photoacoustic resonant cavity and the sound acquisition circuit to receive the composite optical signal; In step S3, the steps of responding to the timing gate opening signal and opening the air intake valve of the photoacoustic resonant cavity and the sound acquisition circuit to receive the composite optical signal include: When a high-level timing gate opening signal is detected, a drive command is sent to open the air intake valve of the photoacoustic resonant cavity, allowing surrounding gas to flow in. Synchronous power supply activates the photodetector to receive composite optical signals and wakes up the microphone to listen to the sound generated inside the photoacoustic resonant cavity.

[0042] Specifically, when a high-level timing gate opening signal is detected, a drive command is sent to open the air intake valve of the photoacoustic resonant cavity, allowing surrounding gas to flow in.

[0043] The microcontroller within the IoT device's end node continuously monitors the voltage levels of its internal general-purpose input / output pins. When it detects a pin level transition from low to high and maintains that transition, the microcontroller determines that the current hardware cycle has entered the timing-gated open range.

[0044] The microcontroller then sends a high-level drive command to the intake valve drive circuit. Upon receiving this command, the intake valve drive circuit outputs a preset voltage to the miniature solenoid valve coil at the entrance of the photoacoustic resonant cavity. The energized miniature solenoid valve coil generates a magnetic field, which overcomes the mechanical resistance of the return spring, driving the valve core to mechanically displace, thereby opening the intake valve.

[0045] After the inlet valve is opened, the internal space of the photoacoustic resonant cavity is connected to the external physical environment of the anesthesia device. During this stage, the mixed gas in the surrounding environment flows into the photoacoustic resonant cavity through the inlet valve according to the pressure gradient and the law of gas molecule diffusion, reaching a state of pressure equilibrium. The flowing-in mixed gas contains ambient background gas as well as anesthetic gas molecules leaking from the anesthesia device's piping.

[0046] Synchronous power supply activates the photodetector to receive composite optical signals.

[0047] Simultaneously with sending the drive command to open the intake valve, the microcontroller's control pin sends an enable trigger signal to the external power management module. The power management module then closes the corresponding solid-state electronic switch, providing a working bias voltage to the photodetector installed behind the light-transmitting window of the photoacoustic resonator.

[0048] The photodetector receives the composite light signal incident through the window and, based on its internal semiconductor physical mechanism, generates the photoelectric effect, converting the incident photon energy into a continuous photocurrent. The physical dimensions of this photocurrent are directly proportional to the instantaneous photopower received, and the conversion calculation formula is as follows: ; in, This represents the instantaneous photocurrent output by the photodetector at the corresponding time point. This represents the responsivity constant of the photodetector for the center wavelength of the emission spectrum of the light-emitting diode. The instantaneous power of the composite optical signal received by the photosensitive effective physical receiving surface of the photodetector. This represents the background dark current parameter of the photodetector under the current bias voltage.

[0049] Through this hardware response process, the system physically receives the optical signal containing downlink communication data and acoustically excited electrical energy in the free space link and converts it into an analog electrical signal that can be read by subsequent processing circuits.

[0050] The microphone is activated to listen to the sound generated inside the photoacoustic resonator.

[0051] During the same clock cycle that the microcontroller activates the photodetector, it connects the power supply circuit of the microphone sensor and the sampling channel of the analog-to-digital converter chip, switching the microphone from low-power standby mode to full-power monitoring mode.

[0052] Leaking anesthetic gas molecules entering the photoacoustic resonant cavity physically absorb the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope of a specific wavelength in the composite optical signal. After absorbing light energy, the gas molecules undergo non-radiative transitions in their internal energy levels, causing the local gas temperature to change periodically with the frequency of the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope.

[0053] This temperature change causes the gas volume to undergo periodic physical expansion and contraction, which in turn radiates sound pressure outward. This sound pressure is reflected within the physical boundaries of the photoacoustic resonant cavity, forming an interference standing wave, which then achieves cascaded amplitude amplification, generating sound internally. The formula for calculating the characteristic amplitude of this initial photoacoustic pressure is as follows: ; in, This represents the amplitude of sound pressure generated by the air pressure pulsations inside the photoacoustic resonator. The cavity constant represents the underlying photoacoustic resonant cavity, and this constant is determined by the internal geometry of the cavity and the resonant acoustic quality factor. The light absorption coefficient representing the target anesthetic gas molecules at a specific emission light source wavelength. This represents the effective average optical power that enters the cavity through the low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope coupling in the composite optical signal.

[0054] The microphone's physical diaphragm senses the fluctuations in sound pressure in real time and deforms using capacitor plates or piezoelectric materials, converting the changes into corresponding AC voltage signals. This enables real-time monitoring of the photoacoustic physical phenomena inside the cavity, providing a complete sensing baseband level input for the subsequent demodulation module.

[0055] Step S4: Separate the composite optical signal into communication demodulation data and photoacoustic pressure signal using a filtering algorithm, extract the base station coordinates from the communication demodulation data, and run the concentration inversion algorithm to calculate the leakage concentration based on the photoacoustic pressure signal; In step S4, the steps of separating the composite optical signal into communication demodulation data and photoacoustic pressure signal using a filtering algorithm, and extracting the base station coordinates from the communication demodulation data, include: A photodetector is used to convert a composite optical signal into an electrical signal, and a high-pass filtering algorithm is used to filter out low-frequency components in the electrical signal to obtain communication demodulated data. The frame structure of the demodulated communication data is parsed to extract the base station coordinates; Step S4, which involves running the concentration inversion algorithm to calculate the leakage concentration based on the photoacoustic pressure signal, includes the following steps: The change in sound pressure generated by the expansion of gas flowing into the photoacoustic resonant cavity after absorbing low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope light energy is obtained, and the change in sound pressure is converted into a photoacoustic pressure signal. The amplitude characteristics of the photoacoustic pressure signal are extracted, and the leakage concentration is derived by combining the cavity structure constant, gas light absorption coefficient and effective excitation light power parameters through a concentration inversion algorithm.

[0056] Specifically, a photodetector is used to convert the composite optical signal into an electrical signal, and a high-pass filtering algorithm is used to filter out the low-frequency components in the electrical signal to obtain communication demodulation data.

[0057] The system transmits the initial electrical signal output from the transimpedance amplifier before the photodetector to the internal filtering circuit or digital signal processor. This initial electrical signal, in the frequency domain, is a mixture of the DC bias level, the low-frequency current corresponding to photoacoustic excitation, and the high-frequency current corresponding to downlink data transmission. The signal processor invokes a high-pass filter algorithm, setting its cutoff frequency parameter to be greater than the low-frequency acoustic excitation carrier frequency and less than the high-frequency communication carrier frequency. The transfer function of this high-pass filter acts on the initial electrical signal, attenuating and filtering out components with frequencies below the cutoff frequency, outputting the separated high-frequency time-domain signal. The calculation formula for this filtering process is as follows: ; Wherein, represents the time-domain signal of the communication demodulated data output after high-pass filtering. This represents the initial electrical signal output by the photodetector. This represents the unit impulse response function of the defined high-pass filter. This represents the integration variable in the convolution integration process.

[0058] The frame structure of the communication demodulated data is parsed to extract the base station coordinates.

[0059] The baseband processing module of the microcontroller performs discretization sampling and threshold decision algorithms on the time-domain signal of the communication demodulated data output after high-pass filtering, restoring the analog waveform to a binary digital bitstream. The baseband processing module then performs frame synchronization operations, comparing the binary digital bitstream with a preset frame preamble sequence using sliding correlation detection. After locating the matching frame start boundary, the module sequentially reads the payload segment in the data link layer frame structure according to the system's communication protocol field definitions. The system parses the coordinate field within this payload segment, extracting the base station coordinates composed of floating-point values. These base station coordinates record the position data of the LED array transmitting the command data in three-dimensional physical space, denoted as . .

[0060] In step S4, the step of running the concentration inversion algorithm to calculate the leakage concentration based on the photoacoustic pressure signal specifically includes the following execution process.

[0061] The change in sound pressure generated by the expansion of gas flowing into the photoacoustic resonant cavity after absorbing low-frequency acoustic excitation envelope light energy is obtained, and this change in sound pressure is converted into a photoacoustic pressure signal.

[0062] A microphone sensor placed inside the photoacoustic resonant cavity senses the mechanical sound pressure pulsations generated by the absorption of alternating light within the cavity's gas. The microphone diaphragm undergoes physical deformation driven by this sound pressure change, and its internal circuitry linearly converts this mechanical deformation into a corresponding analog AC voltage signal. To eliminate ambient broadband noise, the system inputs this analog AC voltage signal to a bandpass filter, whose center frequency parameter is configured to match the inherent acoustic resonant frequency of the underlying photoacoustic resonant cavity. The bandpass filter outputs a separated photoacoustic pressure signal, the physical conversion formula of which is as follows: ; in, The instantaneous voltage value representing the output photoacoustic pressure signal. This represents the inherent acoustic-to-electrical conversion sensitivity constant of the microphone sensor. It represents the instantaneous change in sound pressure generated by the expansion of gas inside the photoacoustic resonant cavity after absorbing the envelope light energy of low-frequency acoustic excitation.

[0063] The amplitude characteristics of the photoacoustic pressure signal are extracted, and the leakage concentration is derived by combining the cavity structure constant, gas light absorption coefficient and effective excitation light power parameters through a concentration inversion algorithm.
