Nanning Railway Bureau, Nanning Train Operations Section: Vital Signs Monitoring Project for Personnel in the Rest Room
Project Background
Railway locomotive crew members generally work on a shift system, with rest areas typically consisting of short-rest rooms. The traditional “on-duty sleep” system is difficult to quantify and assess, making it impossible to effectively warn of the risks associated with fatigued operations. The Nanning Railway Section urgently needs a contactless, precise, and continuous sleep-monitoring solution that can convert rest quality into verifiable safety data. Guilin Spepc Technology, leveraging… UWB Radar Non-Contact Monitoring Technology and Privatized LoRa Health Management Platform , won the bid for the intelligent upgrade project of the rest rooms in this section.
SPEPC Solutions and Equipment
-
Core product : SPEPC's self-developed SPG-01 Personnel Vital Signs Monitor Based on UWB ultra-wideband radar technology, the device can penetrate mattresses to monitor respiratory rate (accuracy: 98%, ±3 bpm), heart rate (accuracy: 90%, ±5 bpm), body movement, and whether the user is in or out of bed. The equipment operates without cameras and is mounted on the ceiling, ensuring user privacy.
-
Communication Networking : Adopt SPEPC LoRa self-organizing network + 4G gateway , the data is transmitted via the railway intranet to SPEPC Health Management Cloud Platform , achieving physical isolation to ensure data security.
-
Platform Features : Automatically generated by the platform Daily Sleep Quality Report (Including sleep duration, proportion of deep sleep, number of awakenings, and number of position changes), it supports team‑level data comparison and historical trend analysis. In the event of abnormal vital signs or prolonged time out of bed, alerts are automatically pushed to managers’ mobile phones and the platform.
Implementation Effectiveness
The system has been deployed in the rest rooms of the Nanning Railway Section, with seven devices installed to cover the main sleeping berths. During operation, the system automatically generates sleep reports, helping management objectively assess the quality of crew members’ rest and supporting scientific shift scheduling to prevent fatigued duty. Practical applications have demonstrated a significant improvement in crew rest quality, more rational shift arrangements, and effectively enhanced operational safety. This project represents a typical application of Guilin SPEPC’s UWB radar-based sleep monitoring technology in railway rest facilities.
