Multi-sensors' data gathering management system for a wireless health monitoring platform

Abstract

Recent Advances in technology has led to the development of small, intelligent, wearable sensors capable of remotely performing critical health monitoring tasks and then transmitting patient's data back to health care centers over wireless medium. In this paper, we propose in first step to study the issues related to the acquisition of medical information concerning a patient via a set of wireless sensors embedded in the patient himself. Secondly, we focus on treatment and use of this information either by a local contractor equipment (personal coordinator) with a capacity of calculation or offset after transfer in 3G and/or WiFi connection to a data server based at the attending physician or hospital.
