Abstract:

The thesis deals with sensor networks and their localization. First section describes sensor networks in general and explains problems of localization and routing. The second part deals with localization using anchors. The principal of the Dv-hop and DV-Distance are there described in detail. These algorithms are used for simulations in Matlab in the main part of this thesis. According to the simulations the most sufficient number of sensors for good localization is estimated.

Abstract:

Emerging body-wearable sensor devices for continuous health monitoring are severely energy constrained and yet required to offer high communication reliability under fluctuating channel conditions. This thesis aims at investigating the opportunities and challenges in the use of dynamic radio transmit power control for prolonging the lifetime of such devices. We first present extensive empirical evidence that the wireless link quality can change rapidly in body area networks, and a fixed transmit power results in either wasted energy (when the link is good) or low reliability (when the link is

Short range wireless data communication networks that are used for sport and health care are sometimes called Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) and they are located more or less on a person. Sole Integrated Gait Sensor (SIGS) is a research project in WBAN, where wireless pressure sensors are placed like soles in the shoes of persons with different kinds of deceases. The sensors can measure the pressure of the foot relative to the shoe i.e. the load of the two legs is measured. This information can be useful e.g. to not over or under load a leg after joint replacement or as a bio feedback sys

This thesis is looking into the dependability of a Electrocardiogram(ECG) based Healthcare Body Sensor Network system (HC-BSNs). For these type of devices, the dependability is not only depending on the devices themselves, but also heavily depending on how the devices are used. Existing literature has identified that there are around 4% of usage issues when existing ECG devices are used by professionals. The rate of usage issue will not be better for the ECG-Based HC-BSNs as these devices are more likely to be used by untrained people. Subsequently, it is with paramount importance to address t

Abstract:

Les réseaux de capteurs corporels (RC2) sont constitués de bio-capteurs à faibles ressources énergétiques et de calcul. Ils collectent des données physiologiques du corps humain et de son environnement, et les transmettent à un coordinateur comme le PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) ou un smartphone, pour être acheminé ensuite aux experts de santé. Les réseaux de capteurs corporels collaboratifs (RC3) sont une collection de RC2 qui se déplacent dans une zone donnée et collaborent,interagissent et échangent des données entre eux pour identifier l'activité du groupe et surveiller l'état individue

Abstract:

Wireless sensors and their applications have become increasingly attractive for industry, building automation and energy control, paving the way for new applications of sensor networks which go well beyond traditional sensor applications. In recent years, there has been a rapid growth in the number of wireless devices operating in close proximity to the human body. Wearable sensor nodes are growing popular not only in our normal living lifestyle, but also within healthcare and military applications, where different radio units operating in/on/off body communicate pervasively. Expectations go b

Abstract:

Wireless personal area networks have emerged as an important communication infrastructure in areas such as at-home healthcare and home automation, independent living and assistive technology, as well as sports and wellness. Wireless personal area networks, including body sensor networks, are becoming more mature and are considered to be a realistic alternative as communication infrastructure for demanding services. However, to transmit data from e.g., an ECG in wireless networks is also a challenge, especially if multiple sensors compete for access. Contention-based networks offer simplicity a

Abstract:

Wearable wireless sensors are a part of human life in the future for applications such as healthcare, sports, navigating, security etc. The number of wearable wireless sensors for fitness and healthcare applications will reach 90 million shipments by 2017 base on ABI research report [1]. The IEEE Standard 802.15.6 for local and metropolitan area networks, part 15.6, “Wireless Body Area Networks” was published on February 2012 to specify the short range wireless communication in the vicinity or inside of the human body [2]. This shows the importance of research needed to maximize the quality of

Abstract:

The main contribution of the thesis is to provide modeling, analysis, and design for Medium Access Control (MAC) and link-quality based routing protocols of Wireless Body Area Sensor Networks (WBASNs) for remote patient monitoring applications by considering saturated and un-saturated traffic scenarios. The design of these protocols has considered the stringent Quality of Service (QoS) requirements of patient monitoring systems. Moreover, the thesis also provides intelligent routing metrics for packet forwarding mechanisms while considering the integration of WBASNs with the Internet of Things

Abstract:

Plusieurs défis existent dans les réseaux de capteurs corporels sans fil tels que la collecte et la fusion de données physiologiques dans un environnement contraignant. En effet, les nœuds de capteurs sans fil ont des ressources limitées en énergie, traitement et mémoire. En outre, une grande quantité de données est collectée. Ces données sont hétérogènes, ambiguës et imprécises. Ajoutons que l'interprétation des données est influencée par plusieurs facteurs externes tels que les informations contextuelles fournies par la personne surveillée. En conséquence la prise de décisions et l'analyse d
