These u-healthcare systems allow users to check and remotely manage the health conditions of their parents. Furthermore, context-aware service in u-healthcare systems includes a computer which provides an intelligent service based on the user’s different conditions by outlining appropriate information relevant to the user’s situation.
This volume will help engineers design sensors, wireless systems and wireless communication embedded systems to provide an integrated u-healthcare monitoring system. This volume provides readers with a solid basis in the design and applications of u-healthcare monitoring systems.
- Provides a solid basis in the design and applications of the u-healthcare monitoring systems
- Illustrates the concept of the u-healthcare monitoring system and its requirements, with a specific focus on the medical sensors and wireless sensors communication
- Presents a multidisciplinary volume that includes different applications of the monitoring system which highlight the main features for biomedical sensor devices
