Abstract:

The emerging wireless body area network (WBAN) has profound impacts in our daily life, such as pervasive medical supervision and outdoor exercises, and the large scale application of wireless body area network can effectively reduce higher cost burden owing to the aging society and long term healthcare for the chronic illness. It can also enhance the quality of life for elderly people and chronic patients and decrease the harm of the sudden diseases. Health monitoring, telemedicine, military, interactive entertainment and portable audio/video systems are some of the applications where WBANs can be used. The miniaturized sensors together with advance micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) technology create a WBAN that continuously monitors the health condition of a patient. This paper presents a comprehensive discussion on the applications of WBANs in smart healthcare systems. It highlights a number of projects that enable WBANs to provide unobtrusive long-term healthcare monitoring with real-time updates to the health center, in addition the paper presents recent advances in biomedical wearable along with technical challenges.
