Internet Based Wireless Temperature Sensing Device using Multiple Patients-Coordinator Set Design Approach

Abstract This paper aims to develop a prototype for a web-based wireless remote temperature monitoring device for patients. This device uses a patient, and coordinator set design approach involving the measuring, transmitting, receiving and recording patients’ temperature via the MiWi wireless network. Experimental tests on the proposed system have shown a wider distance coverage, small temperature resolution and standard deviation. The system could display the temperature and patient information remotely on a graphical-user-interface. Through continuous monitoring of patients’ temperature, it improves the labor productivity and quality of health care of the patients.
