Sleep Features and Underlying Mechanisms Related to Epilepsy and Its Long Term Monitoring
Fig. 3.1 Sleep macro- and microstructure. (a) Sleep time (S) is controlled by both circadian and homeostatic factors, the latter building up as waking (W) progresses and diminishing slowly after…
Mobile Sensors for Multiparametric Monitoring in Epileptic Patients
Fig. 8.1 Diagram of mobile sensor system The mobile sensor system may have different signal transducers or a multi-channel input (in parallel or multiplexed) connected to one microprocessor. The signal…
System Middleware
