Abstract

The main problem for an automatic Intravenous (IV) infusion process control system is the measurement of dripping rate in the drip chamber. This paper utilizes an optical sensor as a solution to this problem. The waveform of the receiver is forecasted by a simple simulation experiment which calculates each path of discrete directional light sources on the transmitter respectively, and then accumulates the number of rays which can reach the receiver. The converting circuit is designed to convert the analog signal into digital one and used as an interrupt signal to a CPU. The ultimate dripping rate is calculated in the corresponding interrupt service routine.
