Healthcare Monitoring Systems: A WBAN Approach for Patient Monitoring

Healthcare Monitoring System, which is expected to reduce healthcare expenses by enabling the continuous monitoring of patient health remotely during their daily activities in healthcare environment. Healthcare applications based on Wireless Sensor Networks are gaining high popularity in all over the world due to their features like flexibility, mobility and ease of constant monitoring of the patient in both outside and inside the body sensed as more useful. The main focus of such system is remote monitoring of patient, inside and outside the hospital room and in ICU in the sense of implantable feature for analysing the patient data. Recent developments in combining sensors, communication systems, and other fields such as cloud computing and Big Data analysis have provided the perfect tools to develop cutting edge systems for improving energy efficiency and consumption with the datasets. Smart homes, smart sensors, and Internet of Things are just a few examples of these application based technologies that will lead to more sustainable and more resilient energy systems. This research work will focus on the Wireless Sensor Networks in terms of emerging wireless technologies which means supporting infrastructure and technology and challenge design issues and as well as security, mobility and energy consumption
