An intelligent femtocell-based sensor network is proposed for home monitoring elderly or people with chronic diseases. The femtocell is considered as a small sensor network which is placed into patient house and consists on both mobile and fixed sensors disposed on three layers. The first layer contains body sensors attached to the patient that monitor different health parameters, patient location,...
The current paper proposes a hybrid sensor network for indoor monitoring and discusses the way both body and ambient wireless sensors are integrated into this network. A multi-level system architecture is described which relays acquired data and alerts to relevant third parties. Its main purpose is to build a system that monitors the house of a patient and is capable of collecting data from all the...
This paper proposed a low-complexity medium access control (MAC) protocol tailored for body sensor networks (BSN) applications. The MAC protocol was designated to handle collision avoidance by reducing the numbers of the overhead packets for handshake control within the BSN. We also suggested a novel message recovery mechanism for getting back the lost physiological information. The adaptive synchronization...
In this paper we present a wearable device for continuous monitoring of respiration signal and the associated algorithm for signal evaluations. The device took advantages of a proven respiratory inductive plethysmograph (RIP) technology and a wireless body sensor networks (BSN) development platform. The textile RIP sensor was integrated into a suit that could be comfortably worn around thorax or abdomen...
