Abstract

There is an important requirement for additional cost-effective solutions for the supervision/monitoring of a patient's tests during and after surgery or old patient as whenever the patient is at home or in the hospital. Advanced sensors combined with wireless communication can provide reduced expenses, improved observance, and higher life quality for the patient. In this paper, the Prototype will be developed for initial control of the basic vital functions of the patient's body, whether patients of old age or even patients who are in hospital. This prototype is designed in a way to be effective and suitable for mobility because it is lightweight and can be carried by humans' arm. Wireless communication using technology for 433 MHz through the product of HC-12 has many advantages including the distance up to 1000 meters as a wireless transmission range and several channels of 433.4 - 473 MHz, up to 100 communication channels. This prototype is developed, designed and tested with the primary version of a biomedical detector network for the long run wireless hospital and home care. The sensor network comprised of four completely different sensors and was tested in exceedingly hospital surroundings.
