Abstract:
The implementation of telemedicine can make use of a sensor network that carries users’ biometric information, as collected by tiny intelligent sensors attached to the human body. We propose a communication system that can be used for telemedicine to improve healthcare and quality of life by making use of bio-sensors, a sensor network and a database with mutual authentication to ensure security. This paper also describes the priority control mechanism in the sensor network, the experimental results, and clarifies the real-time performance of the proposed communication sensor network system.
