MONITORING SYSTEM COMPRISING A MASTER DEVICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION WITH AT LEAST ONE SLAVE DEVICE HAVING A SENSOR

A monitoring system comprising a master device (10; 30; 61) adapted for wireless communication with at least one slave device (31; 50; 62) having a sensor (15, 16; 93). The sensor of the at least one slave device (13, 14; 31; 50; 62; 90) is adapted for acquiring a physiological signal. The master device (10; 30; 61) is adapted for providing a synchronization signal to the at least one slave device, and instructing the at least one slave device (13, 14; 31; 50; 62; 90) to acquire the physiological signal based on timing instructions. The at least one slave device (13, 14; 31; 50; 62; 90) is adapted for acquiring the physiological signal by means of the sensor according to the received timing instructions and transmitting the acquired physiological signal wirelessly to the master device. The master device (10; 30; 61) comprises a processor (105) for processing the synchronized, physiological signals acquired by sensors (15, 16; 93; 101) synchronized via wireless communication.
