Interactive Mobile Health Monitoring System

Abstract

Health monitoring system is an active application in pervasive and ubiquitous computing. It is an application of mobile computing technology for enhancing communication among health care workers, physicians and patients with a view to provide better health care system. Recent elevation in sensors, wireless communication and low-power integrated circuits has empowered the design of pocket size, light weight, low-cost, and interactive bio-sensor nodes. These nodes are seamlessly integrated for mobile health monitoring using wireless body area network which can sense, process and communicate one or more vital parameters. The proposed system, through mobile device can provide patient health parameters (such as temperature, heart rate and ECG) to medical server, care taker and to medical practitioner based on the biomedical and environmental data collected by deployed sensors. In this system, multiple physiological parameters are incorporated for monitoring as against one or two parameters in legacy system. In this paper hardware, software and implementation of system is discussed whereas the focus is on authentication, power consumption, accuracy in transmission of health parameters to medical server.
