Design And Research On Home Health Monitoring System

With family planning policy for more than 30 years, China’s population aging phenomenon has become very serious. At the same time, the health care of the elderly has been a very serious social problem. In recent years, the Chinese government vigorously pursued home-based care policy which advices that the elderly in the home rather than in the nursing home. This policy makes the elderly enjoy a harmonious family life atmosphere, but the elderly cannot get all-time health care services. In this case, there is a need to have a system that can help us to monitor the health of the elderly. In the background of the rapid development of the Internet of things technology, this thesis presents a simple and reliable health monitoring system. This system not only reduces the pressure on the hospital and society, but also provides a good guarantee for the health of the elderly.In this thesis, we first introduce the research background, key technologies and development trend of home health care system; then, we design the architecture of the system and also design the specific hardware and software according to the architecture; finally, we deploy and test the system.The family health monitoring system proposed in this thesis can be compatible with a variety of wireless sensor devices. These wireless sensor devices can be from different manufacturers, but they must be programmable and follow the data format proposed by this thesis. The wireless transmission mode used by these devices can be Bluetooth, Zigbee or other wireless transmission mode. In the design and testing process, we use ARM as the system running platform and use ZigBee and Bluetooth to test the compatibility of the system. We choose the TI CC2530 as the ZigBee core chip and choose TI CC2540 as the Bluetooth core chip.
