Health Condition Observation with High Level Efficiency in Wireless Sensor Network

M. Nagarajan, Dr. S . Karthikeyan

Abstract


This research paper mainly focuses on system architecture for smart healthcare using an advanced Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) and improving the efficiency of sensor to get the data immediately even there is patient in critical condition. It specifically targets assisted-living residents and others who may benefit from continuous, remote health monitoring. It focuses the advantages, objectives, and status of the design and multi-channel cluster clustering algorithm for increasing efficiency. An experimental living space has been constructed at the Lab for evaluation. Early results suggest a strong potential for WSNs to open new research perspectives for low-cost, ad hoc deployment of multimodal sensors for an improved quality of medical care and data retrieval time is very low.
