With the recent development of wireless and sensing technology, wireless sensor devices have invaded the medical area with a wide range of capability. These devices allow medical practitioners to monitor the patients remotely and timely. However, it is known that the body movement can result in significant fluctuations of the radio signal, affecting the data communication. Real-time activity recognition...
Communication between nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) can be interrupted by body movement. With the demand of the use of WSNs in health monitoring systems, it is necessary to investigate and provide a solution to overcome the interference caused by human body parts. The body parts such as the elbow and knee can reflect, absorb or obstruct the radio signal that can disrupt the radio communication...
Changes in turning are one of the early motor deficiencies in Parkinson's disease (PD). We have proposed a system based on wearable, inertial sensors and a novel automatic analysis algorithm that can assess 180deg turns. Twelve patients in early stages of PD and 14 age-matched healthy subjects were enrolled in this study. Inertial sensors were attached on shanks and sternum. Measurement protocol included...
