Abstract

In recent years, the world is facing a common problem that the number of elderly people is increasing. Hence, the problem of home - care for elderly people is very important. In recently, wireless sensor networks are used to structure home - care system in many researches. Wireless sensor networks application for physiological signals communication transmission has many technologies. Such as the Infrared, Bluetooth and ZigBee, etc. Because the angle limit problem of the infrared transmission, and the infrared have not be used for Physiological signal transmission. Although Bluetooth is better than ZigBee for transmission rate, but ZigBee has lower power consumption. Hence, ZigBee is generally used for 24 hours monitor of communication transmission systems. The first procedure o f the system that we use the sensor s to measure temparature, heart rate and blood pressure from human body, Using Zigbee the measured signal sends to the PC via the RS - 232 serial port communication interface. We can send the signal to re mote PC or PDA . In particular, when measured signals over the standard value, the personal computer will send GSM short message to absent manager’s mobile phone.
