Abstract:A dynamic heterogeneous and multihop (DHMH) wireless health monitoring system (WHMS) as a three-tier semi-self-organizing health monitoring network was presented. From bottom to top, the first tire of the network is the mobile data acquisition layer (DAL), the second tire of the network is the data transporting layer (DTL), and the third tire of the network is the data collection layer (DCL). A RF power control based topology management mechanism is proposed to balance the network load and to improve the netwo… Show more
