abstract = "An energy-efficient biosignal processing (BSP) system with a silent mirror tracer is proposed for long-term activity monitoring in battery-operated wearable devices. We implemented our approach using the PRUDAQ analog front stacked on the BeagleBone base station. A low-power highspeed sampler in PRUDAQ is directly integrated with the digital signal processing (DSP) unit in BeagleBone to reduce the communication overhead on connecting to any cloud-side host computer. The BSP on-chip timer-driven hardware directly drives the PRUDAQ sampler without CPU activation and silently traces samples into a mirrored buffer. The proposed method could significantly reduce the number of temporary pauses by running the interrupt service routines and frequent buffer flush to swap traced samples betweeen the host computer. The proposed BSP system results in a 15% reduction of total energy consumption by silently tracing incoming samples in case of extracting features from the 20 million samples for long-term activity monitoring applications such as electrocardiogram (ECG) signals.",
