• In recent years of innovative technology grow as application products in medical domain to support human problems to identification, rectification and alert a persons, as per this domain a wearable device will taken more priority to identify the human problems such as heart attacks, fewer, seizure prediction, wheezing, etc. In this application to characteristics a human body channel communication (BCC), to transmit and receive the data in long distance of communication, to alert the related persons and doctors regarding to monitor the patient at time by time of communication. In the exiting wearable devices will using a human body skins as transmission and reception medium, its affect the human freedoms, and create more jitter noise, the transmission and reception medium of body channel communication will not having fastest speed and does not transmit the data in high accuracy, to overcome these problems the proposed method will designed in Wearable device of Body Channel Communication with technique of DQPSK modulation. As per this application this paper proposed a novel design of Wearable device using Body channel communication to take the parameters of ECG, EMG, Temperature and Pressure, this parameter will transfer through DQPSK Modulation with encoding and decoding technique. In the Wireless network based communication of interconnection methodology will support high bandwidth and long range of communication, as per this Differential Quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) will provide the same data as throughput and less bandwidth which is compare to other modulation scheme such as BPSK, BFSK, QPSK. This Wearable device module will need a Encryption and Decryption technique to send the data securely, as per the digital data signal transmission line, a process of encoding and decoding is chosen in this proposed work to avoid signal overlap, signal distortion with signal interference, so proposed work will have implemented with line coding method. In the line coding method will support more number of bits transmission and reception in less bandwidth, more power efficiency and it will also support probability of error reduction.

Now a days in digital communication a encoding and decoding method will have lot of data losses, potential faults and bit error losses in signal transmission and reception, due to distortion, jitters, and fluctuations. To overcome this problem, the System on Chip introduce a test data compression method, which have reduce complexity, time and cost in Design for testability and code compression technique, to test a data at encoded in off-line and decode in on-line with help of Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG) method. In this test data compression has focused on run-length coding, which have drawbacks to test data in sequence of zeros, and terminated by ones, to overcome this problem Alternating statistical run-length coding(ASRL), and dictionary based coding was introduced. Here, the proposed work will tested to highest ratio in compression technique, which have a encoded scheme will designed ASRL followed by dictionary based method, and decoded vice-versa, based upon this a test ration will increases, and reduced data loses, potential faults and bit error loses, this method shown as a experimental result in XILINX FPGA using Verilog HDL, and finally shown a comparison in terms of area, power and delay with compression ratio.
