Abstract

The emerging of wireless body area network has profound impacts on our daily life, such as pervasive medical supervision and outdoor exercises, and the large scale application of wireless body area network can effectively reduce higher cost burden owing to the aging society and long term healthcare for the chronic illness. It can also enhance the quality of life for elderly people and chronic patients, and decrease the harm of the sudden diseases. The paper presents a distributed wireless body area network for medical supervision. The system contains three layers: sensor network tier, mobile computing network tier, and remote monitoring network tier. It provides collection, demonstration, and storage of the vital information such as ECG, blood oxygen, body temperature, respiration rate. Furthermore, it also provides medical service management and disease warning. The system has many advantages such as comfort, low-cost, low-power, easy configuration, convenient carrying, easy transplantation, real-time reliable data, and friendly human-machine interaction. And then the design and implementation issues of the system composition are discussed in this paper.

一种用于医疗监督的分布式无线体域网络

无线体域网络的出现对我们的日常生活产生了深远的影响，如无形中的医疗监督和户外运动，无线体域网络的大规模应用可以有效减轻老龄化社会和慢性病长期医疗带来的更高的成本负担。还可以提高老年人和慢性病患者的生活质量，减少突发性疾病的危害。提出了一种用于医疗监护的分布式无线体域网络。系统分为三层:传感器网络层、移动计算网络层和远程监控网络层。它提供心电图、血氧、体温、呼吸率等重要信息的收集、演示和存储。此外，它还提供医疗服务管理和疾病预警。该系统具有舒适、低成本、低功耗、配置简单、携带方便、易于移植、数据实时可靠、人机交互友好等优点。然后对系统组成的设计与实现问题进行了讨论。
