Reliable communication for health care Assistance using fuzzy based wearable Sensor devices

Abstract

In recent times, the technological advancements in sensors enables low-power integrated circuits and wireless commun cations which made possibility to develop low-cost, compact, lightweight Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs). WBANs are promising to revolutionize healthcare by enabling low-cost, non-invasive, continuous monitoring with almost real-time medical updates. These nodes are capable of detecting, transmitting and communicating with one or more vital signs by wirelessly. This technology helps to provide doctors, emergency room employees and patients, access to reliable patient data in real time, clinical records, procedures, drugs, examinations, laboratory results, etc. In comparison to wireless surveillance systems, WSNs can be used for long-term, continuous tracking and real-time analysis, even people are engaged in their daily activities. In addition, higher-level medical tasks can be performed by using fuzzy based techniques. Wireless sensors are used to monitor the condition of patients, record information about where the patients are and their daily duties with logged details the central server tracks their health status when they usually live in their own house. When an irregular condition has been observed, the central server automatically warns the family or medical staff. The applications of health care monitoring produces a huge amount of data. Health care applications face the challenge of how to handle and transfer such massive amounts of data and how to facilitate reliability across systems. In data transmitting and event detection there is a greater need to handle the healthcare data. Data may change due to the patient activity and it is also a reason for abnormal values newline
