  1. 1. Wireless Body Area Network for Patient Monitoring in Hospitals

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)

    Author : Divya Vinod Kalkotwar; [2016]
    Keywords : IEEE 802.15.4; wireless body area network; beacon mode; CSMA CA; NFC; patient monitoring.;

    Abstract : The master thesis is a prototyping project of a wireless body area network (WBANs) for patient monitoring in hospitals. The goal of this project was to study various technologies suitable for wireless body area networks, complete a requirement analysis, design a WBAN suitable to achieve the requirements and to test and evaluate the system against the requirements.

  3. 2. SENSOR SYSTEM FOR SPINALINJURY RISK REDUCTION

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Daniel Morberg; [2016]
    Keywords : IMU; spine; concept;

    Abstract : This thesis proposes a solution in which Inertial Measurement Units(IMU) are placed along the thoracic section of the spine and measures the movement and rotation of the spine and subsequently also the back. The proposed solution should be able to help the user reduce the risk of injuries related to posture or lifting. READ MORE

  4. 3. Real-Time Gait Analysis Algorithm for Patient Activity Detection to Understand and Respond to the Movements

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Sektionen för datavetenskap och kommunikation

    Author : Inam-ul-Haq ; Adnan Jalil; [2012]
    Keywords : Parkinson s disease; Gait Analysis; Movement Disorder; Wireless Sensors;

    Abstract : Context: Most of the patients suffering from any neurological disorder pose ambulatory disturbance at any stage of disease which may result in falling without showing any warning sign and every patient is different from another. So there is a need to develop a mechanism to detect shaky motion. READ MORE

    Abstract : The use of autonomous robots in our society is increasing every day and a robot is no longer seen as a tool but as a team member. The robots are now working side by side with us and provide assistance during dangerous operations where humans otherwise are at risk. This development has in turn increased the need of robots with more human-awareness. READ MORE

  6. 5. Time Synchronization In ANT Wireless Low Power Sensor Network

    University essay from JTH, Data- och elektroteknik; Högskolan i Jönköping; Tekniska Högskolan; JTH. Forskningsområde Robusta inbyggda system

    Author : Nathirulla Sheriff; [2011]
    Keywords : Wireless Sensor Networks; Wireless Body Area Networks; Time Synchronization; Time Stamp Protocol; Global Clock Synchronization; ANT Protocol; Sole Integrated Gate Sensor; Health Care Systems;

    Abstract : Short range wireless data communication networks that are used for sport and health care are sometimes called Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) and they are located more or less on a person. Sole Integrated Gait Sensor (SIGS) is a research project in WBAN, where wireless pressure sensors are placed like soles in the shoes of persons with different kinds of deceases. READ MORE
