“…While the energy consumption of BLE is significantly below that of Bluetooth, other features still make it unsuitable for our purposes (see for example, Mohan et al [8] and Baker [9]). First, BLE is designed for small, local area networks and it is typically set up in star topologies or in one-to-one connections.…”

Abstract:After massive earthquakes and other large-scale disasters, existing communication infrastructure may become unavailable and, therefore, it can be quite difficult for relief organizations to fully grasp the impact of the disaster on the affected region. Consequently, this will be the cause of delays to offer the strategic assistance, and to provide water and food, etc. In order to solve the problem of re-establishing communication infrastructure to allow for information gathering, we developed an ad hoc mobile communications network for disaster-struck areas using ZigBee. As the communication speed of ZigBee is low, we propose a problem-specific image compression method for the multimedia data visualization. By using the proposed method combined with GPS information, it is possible to quickly grasp the damage situation in the region. Through our communication experiments in Tsukuba City, Japan we confirm the effectiveness of our

“…For example, on the wired front, whether electrical or optical, a vehicle designer can adopt any combination of CAN, TTCAN, LIN, TTP, BYTEFLIGHT, FLEXRAY, MOST or IDB-1394 for example with each one deliberately promoting specific advantages for target applications [25]- [30]. On the RF wireless front, a vehicle designer has the option of using standardised technologies such as IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth, UWB or ZigBee for which, based upon the target application, the designer will adopt one based upon which one best fits [31]- [33].…”

“…There is an unfortunate trade-off in the fact that Bluetooth is a relatively high-powered transmission protocol and has a limited number of simultaneous connections. A potential alternative in future may be a newly proposed wireless protocol named ZigBee, which has lower data transmission rates than Bluetooth, but is much less power consumptive, which may be ideal for a cell phone logger collecting data from wearable physiological sensors [15,16,4] …”

In today's healthcare world where we react to conditions that have already developed, lifelogging technologies may offer a glimpse into a future world of proactive healthcare where symptoms of conditions are detected at much earlier stages. At the end of last year it was estimated that there were 4 billion cell phones in the world, in comparison to just over 1 billon PCs. In this paper we discuss a framework, which leverages the ubiquity of the cell phone, to aggregate data from multiple wearable biological sensors. This physiological lifelogged data can then be queried via an interface which utilises contextual memory retrieval cues to assist people remember what type of activity they were doing at a particular time. This may be helpful in the diagnosis of potential medical conditions or encourage wellness behaviours.
