Wireless Body Area Network in a Ubiquitous Healthcare System for Physiological Signal Monitoring and Health Consulting
We developed a ubiquitous healthcare system consisted of a physiological signal devices, a mobile system, a device provider system, a healthcare service provider system, a physician system, and a healthcare personal system. In this system, wireless body area network (WBAN) such as ZigBee is used to communicate between physiological signal devices and the mobile system. WBAN device needs a speci...
متن کاملUbiquitous HealthCare in Wireless Body Area Networks - A Survey
Advances in wireless communication, system on chip and low power sensor nodes allowed realization of Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN). WBAN comprised of tiny sensors, which collect information of patient's vital signs and provide a real time feedback. In addition, WBAN also supports many applications including Ubiquitous HealthCare (UHC), entertainment, gaming, military, etc. UHC is required b...
متن کاملImplementation of wireless body area networks for healthcare systems
This work describes the implementation of a complete wireless body-area network (WBAN) system to deploy in medical environments. Issues related to hardware implementations, software and wireless protocol designs are addressed. In addition to reviewing and discussing the current attempts in wireless body area network technology, aWBAN system that has been designed for healthcare applicationswill...
متن کاملBody sensor networks for ubiquitous healthcare
Body sensor networks provide a platform for ubiquitous healthcare, driving the diagnosis in hospital static environment to the daily life dynamic context. We realized the importance of sensing of activities, which is not only a dimension of human health but also important context information for diagnosis based on the physiologic data. This paper presents our ubiquitous healthcare system, uCare...
متن کاملA Low-Power, Reconfigurable Fabric Body Area Network for Healthcare Applications
Body Area Networks (BANs) are gaining prominence for their capability to revolutionize medical monitoring, diagnosis and treatment. This thesis describes a BAN that uses conductive fabrics (e-textiles) worn by the user to act as a power distribution and data communication network to sensors on the user’s body. The network is controlled by a central hub in the form of a Base Station, which can e...
