Phonocardiography Using GSM Technology

The document presents a proposed project to design a digital stethoscope that can transmit heart sound recordings in real time to a doctor's mobile phone via GSM network. The objectives are to design an amplified and noise filtered stethoscope, a microcontroller for wireless transmission, and a mobile GUI for analysis. Existing technologies are surveyed including electronic stethoscopes, algorithms for heart sound segmentation, feature extraction and classification of murmurs. The proposed methodology includes a chest piece, amplifier circuit, GSM module, and mobile analysis of sounds, FFT, and classification. The expected outcome is real-time transmission and analysis of heart sounds on a mobile phone to detect pathology.

Objectives
The main objectives of the proposed work are to: 1. Design a stethoscope (digital) with sufficient amplification (>300X) and noise filtering. 2. Design a microcontroller circuit to transmit the heart sound real time, through a GSM network

to doctors mobile.
3. Build a GUI for the doctors mobile to analyse the heart sound. 4. Conduct trials on normal and abnormal patients.
