Laboratory verification optical signal coupling. IMBLMS phase B.4, appendix C, section 12

Abstract

The design of optical couplers is described for use in the IMBLMS hardwire mode. One coupler transmits data from the bio-belt to the central data system and the other coupler transmits audio frequencies in the opposite direction, from the central data system to the bio-belt. The objective is to isolate the ground system at the body worn bio-belt electronics and the main ground at the central data system, or biomedical and behavioral station. The safety of the subject wearing the bio-belt measuring electronics is the purpose in isolating the wearer from the main system ground.
