Description

[0002] In the field of deep temperature measurement, as a passive sensor, good contact between the non-invasive single-channel heat flux sensor and the skin is an important challenge. If the contact is poor, the sensor measurement results will be significantly different from the actual skin temperature due to the large contact thermal resistance. Specifically, different skin types, such as deep wrinkles, dry or flexible skin, will form an air gap between the sensor and the skin, significantly affecting the effectiveness and repeatability of the measurement. In addition, daily activities or human movement may cause the sensor position to move or the contact pressure to change. These dynamic changes will further increase the contact thermal resistance and lead to inaccurate measurement results.

[0033] First, the application scenarios involved in the deep temperature determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application are explained.

[0034] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a scenario of a method for determining deep temperature provided in an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 1As shown, during the deep temperature measurement process, the heat flow channel serves as a medium for heat transfer, and the sensor detection unit is located on one side of the heat flow channel. The sensor detection unit is used to contact the skin tissue of the target user via a contact interface, and then execute the steps of the deep temperature determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application to measure the deep temperature of the target user and obtain the deep temperature of the target user.

[0036] The deep temperature determination method provided in the embodiments of the present application is described in detail below in combination with multiple embodiments.

[0037] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a deep temperature determination method provided in an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the method execution subject can be any electronic device with processing capabilities, such as the processing module in the above-mentioned sensor detection unit, and the method includes: S301: Obtain temperature measurement information of a target user during a target period of time.

[0038] Optionally, the processing module in the sensing detection unit obtains the temperature measurement information of the target user in the target time period. The target user may be a user wearing the sensing detection unit, and the target time period may be the current measurement time period of the target user, for example, 1 minute or 5 minutes. The temperature measurement information includes: bioimpedance AC component, bioimpedance DC component, body surface temperature, and heat flux.

[0039] Specifically, the bioimpedance AC component refers to the impedance change part of the biological tissue in response to alternating current in the bioimpedance measurement, which is related to the dynamic electrical characteristics of the biological tissue, such as capacitance and inductance. The bioimpedance DC component refers to the constant impedance part of the biological tissue that does not change over time in the bioimpedance measurement, which is related to the static resistance characteristics of the biological tissue. Both the bioimpedance AC component and the bioimpedance DC component are used to indicate information about the physiological and pathological states of biological tissues.

[0040] Specifically, the body surface temperature refers to the surface temperature of the target user, including the temperature of the skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscle, etc. The heat flux refers to the heat energy that passes through the skin tissue of the target user to reach the sensing detection unit within the target period.

[0041] S302: Determine the ratio of the bio-impedance AC and DC components of the target user in the target time period according to the bio-impedance AC component and the bio-impedance DC component.

[0042] Optionally, after obtaining the target user's bioimpedance AC component and bioimpedance DC component in the target time period, the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio of the target user in the target time period can be calculated based on the target user's bioimpedance AC component and bioimpedance DC component in the target time period.

[0043] Among them, the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio refers to the ratio of the changes in the bioimpedance AC / DC components, which can be obtained by the ratio of the bioimpedance AC component to the bioimpedance DC component, reflecting the difference in impedance characteristics of the target user's skin tissue under the action of AC and DC.

[0044] The ratio of the AC and DC components of bioimpedance can be used to measure the difference in electrical characteristics of the target user during the target period, and to characterize the rate of change of the target user's physiological state during the target period, thereby reflecting the change in the target user's physiological state during the target period.

[0045] S303, comparing the ratio of the AC and DC components of the bioimpedance with a preset steady-state threshold; if the ratio of the AC and DC components of the bioimpedance is greater than the preset steady-state threshold, determining the deep temperature of the target user in the target period based on the temperature measurement information and a pre-obtained deep temperature determination model.

[0046] Optionally, after obtaining the bio-impedance AC / DC component ratio, the bio-impedance AC / DC component ratio can be compared with a preset steady-state threshold. If the bio-impedance AC / DC component ratio is greater than the preset steady-state threshold, it can be determined that the contact between the target user and the sensing detection unit is effective contact. Then, the deep temperature of the target user in the target time period can be determined based on the temperature measurement information and the deep temperature determination model obtained in advance.

[0047] Exemplarily, if the ratio of the AC and DC components of the bioimpedance is greater than a preset steady-state threshold, the temperature measurement information is input into a pre-obtained deep temperature determination model to obtain the deep temperature of the target user in the target period.

[0048] Among them, the preset steady-state threshold can be obtained by performing data statistics in advance, and the pre-obtained deep temperature determination model is used to compensate for the error caused by contact thermal resistance based on temperature measurement information, so as to accurately obtain the deep temperature.

[0049] Exemplarily, the pre-obtained deep temperature determination model can be obtained through the biological heat transfer equation.

[0050] In this embodiment, by acquiring the bioimpedance AC component, bioimpedance DC component, body surface temperature and heat flux of the target user in the target time period, and determining the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio of the target user in the target time period according to the bioimpedance AC component and the bioimpedance DC component, the physiological state change of the target user in the target time period can be reflected, and the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio is compared with a preset steady-state threshold, so as to judge whether the contact between the target user and the sensing detection unit is effective contact. If the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio is greater than the preset steady-state threshold, the deep temperature of the target user in the target time period is determined according to the temperature measurement information and the deep temperature determination model obtained in advance. When the target user is in effective contact with the sensing detection unit, the error caused by the contact thermal resistance can be compensated based on the deep temperature determination model, so as to accurately obtain the deep temperature of the target user in the target time period, avoid the problem of decreased accuracy of deep temperature measurement due to the contact air gap between the sensing detection unit and the skin tissue of the target user, and improve the accuracy of the obtained deep temperature. At the same time, the deep temperature can be determined only through the ratio of the AC and DC components of the bioimpedance and the pre-obtained deep temperature determination model. The calculation is simple and does not require the introduction of additional physical equipment, which improves the efficiency of deep temperature determination and can also be applied to any scenario where deep temperature needs to be determined.

[0051] In one possible implementation, Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a deep temperature determination model provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 5 A schematic diagram of a process for determining the deep temperature of a target user during a target period of time in a deep temperature determination method provided in an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the deep temperature determination model includes: a thermal resistance fitting model and a temperature estimation model. In the above S303, the deep temperature of the target user in the target period is determined according to the temperature measurement information and the pre-obtained deep temperature determination model, including: S501 : Determine the contact thermal resistance of the target user in the target period according to the DC component of the bioimpedance and the thermal resistance fitting model.

[0052] It can be understood that under the pressure range of 0.73-10.98 kPa, the change of skin temperature is significantly affected by pressure. Therefore, in the measurement process of wearable deep temperature sensor, the factor that has the greatest impact on contact thermal resistance is the change of contact pressure. When the contact pressure between the sensing detection unit and the skin is known, the thermal resistance fitting model can be obtained based on the semi-empirical model, and the contact thermal resistance can be determined by the thermal resistance fitting model.

[0053] Optionally, the DC component of the bioimpedance may be input into a thermal resistance fitting model in the deep temperature determination model, so that the contact thermal resistance is fitted based on the DC component of the bioimpedance to obtain the contact thermal resistance of the target user in the target period.

[0054] S502: Determine the deep temperature of the target user in the target period according to the body surface temperature, heat flux, contact thermal resistance and temperature estimation model.

[0055] It can be understood that after the contact thermal resistance is determined through the thermal resistance fitting model, the contact thermal resistance in the deep temperature determination process can be compensated based on the biological heat transfer equation and combined with the contact thermal resistance, thereby obtaining a temperature estimation model, thereby being able to determine the deep temperature of the target user in the target period based on the body surface temperature, heat flux, contact thermal resistance and temperature estimation model.

[0056] Optionally, the body surface temperature, heat flux, and contact thermal resistance are input into a temperature estimation model to obtain the deep temperature of the target user during the target period.

[0057] The contact thermal resistance of the target user in the target period is determined by the DC component of bioimpedance and the thermal resistance fitting model. The contact thermal resistance of the target user in the target period can be accurately calculated. The error caused by the contact thermal resistance can be compensated through the body surface temperature, heat flux, contact thermal resistance and temperature estimation model, and the deep temperature of the target user in the target period can be accurately determined.

[0058] In a possible implementation, the thermal resistance fitting model is: ,in, is the contact thermal resistance, is the DC component of bioimpedance, , as well as is the scaling factor.

[0059] Optionally, It can be a baseline signal of the DC component of bioimpedance. The thermal resistance fitting model can be obtained by fitting the contact thermal resistance using the bioimpedance / photocurrent volume wave signal. Specifically, the DC component of bioimpedance can be processed to obtain the baseline signal of the DC component of bioimpedance, and the contact thermal resistance can be fitted through the baseline signal of the DC component of bioimpedance.

[0060] In a possible implementation, the temperature estimation model is: ,in, is the deep temperature, is the body surface temperature, is the heat flux, is the contact thermal resistance, , is a constant coefficient.

[0061] Optionally, the temperature estimation model can be obtained by a bioheat transfer equation. For example, the bioheat transfer equation is simplified under steady-state boundary conditions, and the bioheat transfer equation is solved to obtain the following formula (1):

[0062] in, is the deep temperature, is the body surface temperature measured by the sensing unit, is the blood perfusion rate, is the above contact thermal resistance, is the thermal diffusivity of skin tissue, expressed as (k is thermal conductivity, which indicates the ability of a material to conduct heat, C b is the specific heat capacity, is the density).

[0063] For example, according to Fourier's law, the heat flux density in the heat conduction mode is It is inversely proportional to the thickness x and directly proportional to the temperature gradient T, as shown in the following formula (2): (2) in, is the heat flux, x is the thickness, T is the temperature gradient, is the thermal conductivity.

[0064] For example, the corresponding heat flow at the skin is given by the following formula (3):

[0065] in, is the heat flux, is the blood perfusion rate, is the body surface temperature measured by the sensing unit, is the deep temperature, is the above contact thermal resistance, is the thermal diffusivity of skin tissue, is the thermal conductivity.

[0066] For example, the deep temperature can be determined by the above formulas (1)-(3): , thermal contact resistance and body temperature , and simplify it. Put the parameters obtained from the sensing unit on the right and the deep temperature on the left. We can get the following formula (4), which is the temperature estimation model mentioned above: (4) in, is the deep temperature, is the body surface temperature measured by the sensing unit, is the heat flux, is the blood perfusion rate, is the above contact thermal resistance, is the thermal diffusivity of skin tissue, expressed as (k is thermal conductivity, which indicates the ability of a material to conduct heat, C b is the specific heat capacity, is the density), , are all constant coefficients.

[0067] It can be understood that in actual application, the scaling factor in the thermal resistance fitting model and the constant coefficient in the temperature estimation model can be obtained by predetermination. The following is an exemplary description of the process of determining the thermal resistance fitting model and the temperature estimation model.

[0068] In one possible implementation, Figure 6 A schematic diagram of a process for determining a thermal resistance fitting model and a temperature estimation model in a deep temperature determination method provided in an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 1 , the determination process of the thermal resistance fitting model and the temperature estimation model includes: S601. Obtain sample temperature information of a sample user in a sample period.

[0069] Optionally, when determining the thermal resistance fitting model and the temperature estimation model, sample temperature information of the sample user in the sample period may be obtained. The sample period may be a period with the same physiological state as the target period, and the sample user may be a user with the same physiological state as the target user.

[0079] Exemplarily, the difference between the actual deep temperature and the deep temperature of the sample can be calculated, the scaling factor in the initial thermal resistance fitting model can be fixed, and the constant coefficient in the initial temperature estimation model can be iteratively optimized for parameter search, and the equivalent contact resistance can be calculated through the deep temperature of the sample, and the scaling factor in the initial thermal resistance fitting model can be optimized for parameter search, and combined with the preset termination tolerance, the optimal scaling factor and the optimal constant coefficient can be obtained, the iteration is terminated, and the thermal resistance fitting model and the temperature estimation model are obtained based on the optimal scaling factor and the optimal constant coefficient.

[0080] Optionally, the scaling factor in the initial thermal resistance fitting model and the constant coefficient in the initial temperature estimation model may be searched through grid search to find the optimal solution, thereby obtaining the thermal resistance fitting model and the temperature estimation model.

[0081] By obtaining the sample temperature information of the sample user in the sample period, and by obtaining the initial thermal resistance fitting model and the initial temperature estimation model, and inputting the DC component of the sample bioimpedance into the initial thermal resistance fitting model, the actual contact thermal resistance is obtained, and the sample surface temperature, the sample heat flux and the actual contact thermal resistance are input into the initial temperature estimation model to obtain the actual deep temperature, so that according to the difference between the actual deep temperature and the sample deep temperature, the scaling factor of the initial thermal resistance fitting model and the constant coefficient of the initial temperature estimation model are iteratively adjusted, and the thermal resistance fitting model and the temperature estimation model are obtained after the iteration, which can continuously optimize the thermal resistance fitting model and the temperature estimation model, ensure the accuracy of the obtained thermal resistance fitting model and the temperature estimation model, and improve the generalization ability of the obtained thermal resistance fitting model and the temperature estimation model, so as to accurately determine the deep temperature of the target user in the target period.

[0082] The above describes in detail the deep temperature determination process when the ratio of the AC and DC components of bioimpedance is greater than the preset steady-state threshold. The following describes an exemplary description of the deep temperature determination process when the ratio of the AC and DC components of bioimpedance is less than or equal to the preset steady-state threshold.

[0083] In a possible implementation, the deep temperature determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes: If the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio is less than a preset steady-state threshold, the fluctuation range of the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio is determined, and the deep temperature of the target user in the target period is determined based on the fluctuation range of the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio.

[0084] It should be understood that when the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance is less than or equal to a preset steady-state threshold, it can be determined that the contact between the target user and the sensing detection unit is ineffective contact, that is, the target user is in motion or in a state of drastic emotional fluctuations. At this time, the determination of the deep temperature is affected by motion artifacts, and the temperature measurement information obtained by the sensing detection unit is non-steady-state information. The deep temperature of the target user in the target period can be determined by determining the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance and based on the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance.

[0085] Optionally, if the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio is less than a preset steady-state threshold, the fluctuation range of the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio can be determined by statistical analysis based on the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio. The fluctuation range of the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio is used to indicate the distribution and discreteness of the bioimpedance AC / DC component ratio.

[0086] Exemplarily, after obtaining the fluctuation range of the bio-impedance AC / DC component ratio, the bio-impedance AC / DC component ratio at the target position can be determined from the fluctuation range of the bio-impedance AC / DC component ratio, and based on the bio-impedance AC / DC component ratio at the target position, the deep temperature of the target user in the target time period can be determined.

[0087] Exemplarily, after obtaining the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance, the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance can be judged in combination with a preset fluctuation range threshold, and based on the judgment result, the deep temperature of the target user in the target time period can be determined.

[0088] By determining the fluctuation range of the bio-impedance AC / DC component ratio when the bio-impedance AC / DC component ratio is less than a preset steady-state threshold, the physiological state of the target user in the target time period can be judged, and the deep temperature of the target user in the target time period can be determined based on the fluctuation range of the bio-impedance AC / DC component ratio. The deep temperature of the target user in the target time period can be accurately obtained through changes in the target user's physiological state.

[0089] In a possible implementation, the above steps determine the deep temperature of the target user in the target period according to the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of the bioimpedance, including: If the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of the bioimpedance is less than a preset fluctuation range threshold, the deep temperature of the target user in the target period is determined based on the deep temperature and the surface temperature of the target user in the historical period.

[0090] Optionally, if the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bioimpedance is smaller than a preset fluctuation range threshold, it can be determined that the physiological state of the target user during the target period is within a small fluctuation range. Then, the deep temperature of the target user during the target period can be determined based on the deep temperature and surface temperature of the target user during the historical period.

[0091] The preset fluctuation range threshold may be 0.7 times the above-mentioned steady-state threshold.

[0092] Exemplarily, if the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance is smaller than a preset fluctuation range threshold, the deep temperature of the target user in the historical period and the surface temperature of the target user in the target period can be adaptively filtered to eliminate motion artifacts and compensate for the effects of skin sweating, thereby obtaining the deep temperature of the target user in the target period.

[0093] Exemplarily, if the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance is smaller than a preset fluctuation range threshold, the deep temperature of the target user in the historical period and the surface temperature of the target user in the historical period can be adaptively filtered to eliminate motion artifacts and compensate for the effects of skin sweating, thereby obtaining the deep temperature of the target user in the target period.

[0094] When the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance is less than a preset fluctuation range threshold, the deep temperature of the target user in the target period is determined by the deep temperature and surface temperature of the target user in the historical period, so that motion artifacts can be eliminated and the influence of skin sweating can be compensated. Therefore, when the contact between the target user and the sensor detection unit is ineffective, the deep temperature of the target user in the target period can be accurately obtained, and the influence of the fluctuation of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance on the deep temperature is reduced, thereby improving the robustness of deep temperature determination in complex life scenarios.

[0095] In a possible implementation, the above steps determine the deep temperature of the target user in the target period according to the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of the bioimpedance, including: If the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of the bioimpedance is greater than a preset fluctuation range threshold, the deep temperature of the target user in the target period is determined based on the deep temperature of the target user in the historical period.

[0096] Optionally, if the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of the bioimpedance is greater than a preset fluctuation range threshold, it can be determined that the physiological state of the target user in the target period is in a large fluctuation range, and the deep temperature of the target user in the target period can be determined based on the deep temperature of the target user in the historical period. The preset fluctuation range threshold can be 0.7 times the above-mentioned steady-state threshold.

[0097] Optionally, if the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of the bioimpedance is less than a preset fluctuation range threshold, the deep temperature of the target user in the historical period may be interpolated using a statistical method to obtain the deep temperature of the target user in the target period.

[0098] Optionally, when the DC component of bioimpedance exceeds a preset baseline threshold, the DC component of bioimpedance is determined to be sensor displacement, that is, there is an error in the DC component of bioimpedance. Then, the displacement period can be interpolated through data of a specified time length before and after the sensor displacement time period to obtain the deep temperature of the target user in the target time period.

[0099] For example, when the DC component of the bioimpedance at the target moment in the target period exceeds a preset baseline threshold, the deep temperature of the target user at the first moment in the historical period can be polynomially interpolated to obtain the deep temperature of the target user at a certain moment in the target period, thereby obtaining the deep temperature of the target user in the target period. The first moment and the target moment in the target period can be separated by a specified time.

[0100] When the fluctuation range of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance is greater than the preset fluctuation range threshold, the deep temperature of the target user in the target period is determined by the deep temperature of the target user in the historical period. When the fluctuation is large, the deep temperature of the target user in the target period can be accurately determined, reducing the impact of the fluctuation of the ratio of the AC and DC components of bio-impedance on the deep temperature, thereby improving the robustness of deep temperature determination in complex life scenarios.
