Abstract

This paper proposes a cloud-service home health monitoring system based on WBANs for tracking the health status of the older people while supporting their mobility. The system consists of a WBANs physiological parameters acquisition system and a remote cloud server. While the former subsystem is responsible for collecting and transmitting the physiological parameters of the older people. And the latter server integrated WBANs with cloud computing provides users with remote services. In this paper, the specific implementation of WBANs physiological parameters acquisition system and the remote cloud server are described. In addition, to facilitate the older people or their families to learn their health status, a simple android app is developed. Finally, the paper takes ECG and body temperature as an example, carry out two functional validation. The result shows a superior performance of the proposed system.
