Abstract
Due to lack of heart monitoring device, heart problems have been causing more than 17 million people death every year. Recently, researches on IoT (Internet of things) system provide feasible solutions to solve the problems. Such as LoRa wireless communication protocol, it can cover more than 1km2 area and reliable communication connection. In heart monitoring system, packet transmission frequency should be considered carefully because of the reliability. Therefore, in this paper, the packet loss of heart monitoring system has been analyzed through packet length, transmission frequency and communication distance. Results shows that the packet loss can be less than 1% through specified communication property. The result in the paper can provide reference for reliable heart monitoring system design.
