Design and Application of Mobile Embedded Systems

for Home Care Applications

IEEE 2010 Second International Conference on Computer Engineering and Applications

ABSTRACT:
Applied biotelemetry is of growing importance in today's world.
Specificity of biotelemetry data put special requirements on real
biotelemetric system. This article describes some of conclusions acquired in
development of real biotelemetric system using off the shelf embedded
hardware technology, namely ARM microcontrollers, FRAM memory and
dedicated ZigBee chipsets. Described biotelemetric system is partitioned
into logical parts that communicate using custom data protocols. Devices
participating in biotelemetric system use ZigBee and Ethernet networks as
underlying structure for data communication.
