Trang 31CHAPTER 2: LITERATURE VIEW
2.1 Device theory:
Currently, many leading football teams in the world are actively using devices to support and track players on the field This is not only a trend but also an important part of the strategy for managing and developing the team of players Famous companies such as Catapult, Playertex,… are the leading providers of modern solutions for this
The tracking device is usually attached neatly to the back of the player's neck, designed in a small bag, and contains many important sensors In particular, the positioning sensor, accelerometer, and heart rate sensor all have the task of tracking and recording important information In particular, the heart rate sensor tracks the player's heart rate while the position sensor and accelerometer provide information about the distance and speed of movement on the football field
After collecting data, the information is transmitted to a tracking device outside the football field for statistical and analytical purposes Coaches use these indicators to assess the health status of the players and from there build appropriate training and competition plans to optimize performance for each individual At the same time, during training, it can be integrated with the adjustment of the formation, and running on the field according to the requirements of the coach, thanks to the vibration sensor, evaluating the accuracy of the player when moving
This proves that integrating technology and tracking the personal information of players is an important part of managing the team effectively in a professional environment
2.2.1 What is Heart Rate?
Heart Rate (HR) is a basic biological signal that reflects the activity of the cardiovascular system and is an important factor in assessing the health of the body HR signals are often measured and recorded using devices such as ECG electrodes, PPG sensors, or smart wearable devices
HR is a measure of the number of beats of the heart in a given period, typically expressed as beats per minute (bpm) It is an important indicator of heart health and function
Resting Heart Rate (RHR), measured most accurately when someone wakes up or in the morning, indicates the level of heart rate when the body is not active RHR measurement is often used to assess cardiovascular health and fitness A low RHR is often considered a sign of a strong cardiovascular system and the body's ability to effectively deliver oxygen The normal RHR for adults typically ranges from 60 to 100 bpm
Trang 32 Training performance measurement: In sports, heart rate signals are used to measure the level of exercise and training performance
Stress reduction and mental improvement: Monitoring heart rate signals can help users identify and reduce stress, as well as improve their mental health
Trang 33However, many external factors also affect heart rate For example, environmental factors such as hot weather or high altitudes can increase heart rate Emotions such as anxiety, fear, or stress can also cause fluctuations Stimulants such as tobacco, caffeine, as well as medications and eating/drinking a lot also play an important role in changing heart rate
In particular, vigorous physical activity such as running, swimming, or high-intensity sports can increase maximum heart rate as the body needs to provide more oxygen and nutrients to meet the needs of exercise These factors all simultaneously impact the fluctuation of heart rate, and understanding them is important for a comprehensive assessment of cardiovascular health
2.2.2 Overall Heart Rate:
Amplitude: Measures the difference between the maximum and minimum values of the heart rate signal Amplitude typically reflects the amount of blood being pumped from the heart to the body and may be related to the strength of the heart beat
Frequency: Measures the number of heart beats in a unit of time, typically beats per minute The frequency of the heart rate signal can vary depending on the individual's physical condition, activity level, and emotional state
Time: The heart rate signal is typically measured and recorded over time The heart rate cycles are important for assessing the rhythm and timing of the heart
Figure 2.2: Electrocardiogram (ECG)
Trang 34The electrical processes of the heart are the electronic processes that occur within the heart to create and regulate the heart rate Here are the important electrical processes in the heart:
P wave: The P wave represents the stimulation and contraction of the atrial cells in the atrium It is typically a small, wavy shape, representing the process of atrial contraction and pushing blood from the atrium into the ventricles
QRS complex: Represents the stimulation and contraction of the ventricular cells in the heart It consists of the Q, R, and S waves The Q wave represents the first stimulation and contraction of the ventricular cells The R wave represents the main stimulation and contraction of the ventricular cells, while the S wave represents the final stimulation and contraction of the ventricular cells The QRS complex represents the strong contraction of the ventricular cells and pumping blood out of the heart
T wave: Represents the process of electrical repolarization of the heart after it contracts It represents the recovery of the heart cells and preparation for the next heart beat cycle The T wave is typically a small, wavy shape, and it reflects the repolarization of the heart cell membrane
The P, QRS complex, and T waves are the basic and important waveforms in the electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) They provide information about the electrical processes and function of the heart, and allow the identification of electrical abnormalities such as irregular heart rhythms, conduction disorders, and heart disease
The Electronic Form of the Heart Rate Signal:
Generation of the PQRST Signal: In the electrocardiogram (ECG), the heart rate signal is typically represented by the P, Q, R, S, and T waves Each wave represents a part of the cardiac cycle and shows the contraction and relaxation of the heart chambers (ventricles) and atria
PPG Signal: Using a PPG sensor, the heart rate signal can be measured by measuring the change in light reflected from the skin, due to the increase and decrease of blood volume in the blood vessels under the skin
Target Heart Rate (THR) is the index of the heart rate when the body is active, such as working, exercising, or moving the body, at this time the heart rate increases to provide enough blood and oxygen to the working muscles The THR index is to ensure that the practitioner is exercising at the appropriate intensity and safety for health
THR is calculated based on the maximum heart rate and the desired level of exercise to be achieved A common method for calculating THR is to use the relative percentages of the maximum heart rate The commonly used formula is the Karvonen formula:
THR = Target % x (Maximum Heart Rate - RHR) + RHR (2.1)

Trang 36For example, a 30-year-old person who wants to exercise at a moderate intensity (65% of maximum heart rate) would have a THR of:
THR = 0.65 x (220 - 30) + 30 THR = 137.5 + 30
Maximum heart rate is the number of beats per minute of the heart when the body is working at its maximum capacity The maximum heart rate of soccer players typically ranges from 180 to 220 beats/minute, higher than that of normal people, about 160 to 200 beats/minute
The ability to achieve a higher maximum heart rate is the result of physical training and regular exercise When exercising, the heart muscle will be stimulated to develop, thereby increasing the ability to pump blood and supply oxygen to the body This helps the player to be able to operate at a higher intensity for longer periods of time without fatigue
Lower resting heart rate: When the player is not active or during the rest period between attacks, the heart rate can drop below the normal level This is usually the result of good cardiovascular adaptation and the ability of the player's body to adapt effectively when there is no high demand for movement
Resting heart rate is the number of beats per minute of the heart when the body is at rest The resting heart rate of soccer players typically ranges from 40 to 50 beats/minute, lower than that of normal people, about 60 to 80 beats/minute
A lower resting heart rate is a sign of good cardiovascular health This is because the player's cardiovascular system has been trained to function more efficiently, thereby helping the body to save energy and recover faster after exercise
Trang 37 Faster recovery ability: Soccer players often have the ability to recover faster after strenuous exercise The specially trained physique, a strong heart helps the player to quickly recover from rapid heart rate after running fast and hard work on the field
The ability to recover quickly is an important factor in helping players maintain high performance throughout the match This is because the player's body can quickly return to normal heart rate and supply enough oxygen to the muscles, thereby helping the player to continue competing at high intensity
Understanding these differences not only helps improve performance but also supports the process of managing and training players to maintain cardiovascular health and enhance the ability to adapt to the competitive environment
2.2 Theory of location determination : 2.2.1 Ultra Wide Band (UWB)
Ultra-wideband (UWB) is an advanced wireless communication technology that enables high-speed data transmission across a wide range of frequencies, typically ranging from tens of MHz to over 10 GHz This technology allows for high-speed data transmission, high precision, and lower energy consumption compared to traditional communication methods
Figure 2.3: UWB technology
In UWB, data is transmitted in the form of short pulses with very narrow pulse widths, typically only within nanoseconds, and can span multiple frequency channels The use of a wide range of frequencies helps UWB to avoid interference from other signals and minimize collisions with other communication systems
Trang 38UWB technology has numerous applications in various fields, including data transmission, location positioning, radar, sensors, and wireless connectivity between electronic devices In the automotive industry, UWB is used for tracking the position and detecting objects around vehicles, while in healthcare, it can be utilized to monitor patients' health parameters without direct contact
Figure 2.4: The operational principles of UWB computing
One of the major advantages of UWB is its high noise immunity and excellent material penetration capabilities, making it an attractive choice for applications requiring high reliability and performance However, there are also challenges such as compliance with legal regulations and industry standards, as well as competition from other wireless communication technologies
2.2.2 Locate a Tag in space:
When using a pair of DW1000, it is easy to calculate the distance between the two devices when setting them in Anchor and Tag mode However, to determine the exact coordinate position of a Tag in space, we need at least three DW1000 to be able to apply the Plane Formulary Algorithm In which, two DW100 have the role of Anchor and the remaining DW1000 has the role of Tag
Trang 39Let us assume that all three DW1000 are in a plane with the same height In which, there are two DW1000 that play the role of Anchor and the distance between them is a constant that has been determined in advance according to the setup From there, when a Tag returns the distance between it and the remaining two Anchors, we can easily determine its position in space through the Plane Formulary Algorithm method
Figure 2.5: Trigonometry
In the illustration above, A and B are assumed to be two Anchors and have a distance of c that is a constant that has been pre-set Meanwhile, C is a Tag with the magnitude of the distance with A as b and with B as a will be determined through the DW1000 of the Tag So obviously, with three points in a triangle formed by the three DW1000s, we have been able to easily determine all of their edges From there, we can quickly determine the coordinate position of C through the Plane Formulary Algorithm calculated as follows
First, we will apply the Cosine Theorem to calculate the angle alpha created by the magnitude of the distance of the AC and AB edges using the formula:
𝑐𝑜𝑠 𝑎 = 𝑏2+𝑐2−𝑎2
2𝑏𝑐 𝑠𝑖𝑛 𝑎 = √1 − 𝑐𝑜𝑠2𝑎 (2.4)
If we let point A be the quadrant (0, 0), then point C has a coordinate position of: 𝐶 (𝑏 ∗ cos 𝑎 , 𝑏 ∗ sin 𝑎) (2.5)
Trang 402.3 Theory of player reminder mechanism:
In-field player notification using wearable devices is a new technology that is being developed and applied in sports, especially football This technology uses wearable devices, such as smartwatches, smart bracelets, or smart glasses, to provide information and reminders to players during competition
There are many benefits to in-field player notification using wearable devices, including:
- Increased performance: Wearable devices can provide players with information about the positions of teammates, opponents, and the ball, helping players make more accurate decisions and improve performance
- Reduced injuries: Wearable devices can track players' physiological indicators, such as heart rate, breathing rate, and body temperature, helping to detect early signs of injury and take timely preventive measures
- Enhanced communication: Wearable devices can allow players to communicate with each other and with the coach quickly and effectively, helping to improve team coordination and tactics
There are many methods for in-field player notification using wearable devices, including:
Text messages: Text messages are the most common method of player notification Text messages can be sent to players in the form of text messages or push notifications
Images: Images can also be used to notify players Images can be sent to players in the form of static images or videos
Sound: Sound can also be used to notify players Sound can be sent to players in the form of voice notifications or chimes
However, to be in line with the scale of the thesis topic, the group used the method of player notification using vibration sensors in an inner vest This method has the following advantages:
Non-distracting: Vibration sensors do not distract players during competition
User-friendly: Vibration sensors are easy to use and do not require players to do anything else
High aesthetics: Inner vests can be designed to match the players' competition attire
