Communication interfaces for medical devices are normally wired. For long-term monitoring applications, wired devices limit patient mobility. In this paper a wireless communication interface for an EEG/PSG Holter monitor is presented. Selection of broadcasting band, communication standard, available hardware, and connection algorithm to use are discussed before making a choice. Results of experimental tests carried out on the prototype demonstrate the functionality of the implemented interface.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
