Abstract

A wireless communication and global location enabled intelligent health monitoring system comprising of a plurality of wireless medical sensor apparatus that include an active sensor, a transducer, a digital-to analog converter, a frequency synthesis, a plurality of bandpass filter, a plurality of linear power amplifier, a signal mixer, a packaged antenna, a thin-film battery, for measuring patient vital signs on different parts of patient body, and a main processing unit apparatus that contains a system software including intelligent controller which uses active, real-time monitoring method to measure and process vital signs and location information for providing alert on location and transmitting emergency request to remote patient monitoring station for immediate assistance. Intelligent controller and all application tasks of said system software are running under separate parallel execution threads. Under an urgent situation, the two-way wireless communication, global position data and adaptive location assessment capabilities allow an emergency service vehicle to be dispatched to the patient that carries the system. The system includes a (Hypertext Transmission Protocol) HTTP Web server that can respond to a remote request sent wirelessly either from a patient monitoring station or a patient's family member through a standard Internet browser, anywhere and anytime. The system uses a rechargeable/removable battery in conjunction with a software control to recharge the system and conserve system power consumption.
