Wireless Body Area Network for Heart Attack Detection [Education Corner]

Abstract: This paper describes a body area network for measuring an electrocardiogram signal and transmitting it to a smartphone via Bluetooth for data analysis. The body area network uses a specially designed planar inverted F-antenna whose design prioritizes size, cost and efficiency. Due to the human body's electrical properties, the antenna was designed to enable surface wave propagation around the body. The system utilizes the user's own smartphone for data processing, while the built in communications can be used … Show more

“…Existing systems highlight that communications are also essential for an Internet of Things healthcare system. In several existing system models [5], [6], [13], short-range communications, such as Bluetooth, are suggested for transferring sensor data to a smart phone to be processed. Long-range communications such as LTE can then be used to transfer the processed information from the patient to the healthcare provider, typically a doctor, through SMS or the Internet.…”

“…The user will be alerted with a text message only when the heart rate falls out of range. A smartphone based system was developed by G. Wolgast to monitor and detect heart failures in real-time [6]. A single lead heart monitor sensor was used with an Arduino TM microcontroller, LE Bluetooth device and antenna to send and receive data to and from the Android TM application created on the smartphone.…”
