Abstract :
In this paper, a body piconet based sensor network for telemedicine is presented. The system is including several smart sensors nodes organized in a bluetooth piconet controlled by a master device which data observed by the nodes is stored in and is then transferred periodically to network hospital. Prelimission results show that it is a feasible solution for transmission of ECG, EEG breath frequency etc. The future work is pointed out at last.
